"This would be my happiest min-cash ever," Brett Richey said as he moved all in for 117,000 from middle position. The action was folded to Chris Klodnicki, who was in the big blind.

Klodnicki looked at one card and said, "I'm probably calling," after which he looked at the next card and called.

Richey turned over {J-Spades}{9-Diamonds}, and was in big trouble against Klodnicki's {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades}. The board ran out {K-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{3-Spades}{8-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}, and Richey got eliminated.

Richey was the first player to be knocked out in the money, and the next will also receive $91,549. The 14th place finisher will get $105,235.
