Steve Brecher Eliminated in 4th Place ($90,223)

Level 24 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Steve Brecher - 4th Place
Steve Brecher - 4th Place

Ali Eslami limped in from under the gun and action folded to Tim West in the small blind. He completed the bet before Steve Brecher checked his option in the big blind. The three players saw the flop come down {K-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} and West checked. Brecher also checked and Eslami bet 30,000. After West folded, Brecher check-raised all in for a 155,000. Eslami made the call.

Eslami: {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}
Brecher: {K-Spades}{8-Diamonds}

Eslami's queen kicker was dominating the at-risk Brecher, who was looking for some help on the turn or river to stay alive. The turn paired the board with the {9-Spades} and gave Brecher a few outs to a chop if a king, nine or ace fell. He couldn't win the hand.

The river completed the board with the {2-Clubs} and that was the end of the line for Brecher. He was eliminated in fourth place for just over $90,000 in prize money.
