Sam Trickett Eliminated in 6th Place

Sam Trickett - 6th Place
Sam Trickett - 6th Place

Perica Bukara raised to 25,000 on the button and Sam Trickett defended his big blind.

The flop came down {A-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{4-Hearts} and both checked to see the {6-Clubs} fall on the turn. Trickett bet 34,000 and Bukara popped it to 84,000. Trickett re-raised, making it an additional 64,000 to go. Bukara squirmed when he saw the raise, but was quick to announce all in. Trickett called immediately with {5-Clubs}{3-Clubs}, the second nuts, but was immensely deflated to see Bukara table {8-Hearts}{5-Hearts} for the nuts.

The river was the {3-Clubs} and Bukara's better straight played to bust Trickett and burst the bubble.
