Final Table Action
The first elimination of the final table was deeman1823, who called with a pair of fives MurningB4n's shove with nine-ten on a nine-seven-three flop, and he didn't manage to find any help on the turn or the river.
Eight-handed play lasted more than an hour with the players being mostly cautious and trying to ladder up. After a couple of double ups, it was bsdias who busted after a three way all in, where he was holding eights against CabecaTilt's aces and cosmiNik's nines. CabecaTilt put his name in the list as a serious contender after tripling up in this hand, while cosmiNik was the one who actually busted bsdias, winning a smaller side pot.
After this hand, the eliminations came in a rapid fashion with carmen.1957, proker29, and yaewn losing their stacks in a ten-minute period.
MurningB4n was the leader in the beginning of the final table, and for the biggest part of it, but eventually was the player who was eliminated in fourth place, to send the remaining players into three-handed play. In his last hand, he open shoved with a pair of sixes to get called by kukadjamba's pair of jacks, which held on the board to send MurningB4n to the rail.
Three-handed play started with a deal, after the three remaining players deciding to split the pot, and CabecaTile was the eventual winner of the event.
This is the conclusion of PokerNews' coverage for Event #10 of the XL Blizzard series. Don't forget to tune in again on February 11th for the XL Blizzard #17 - $100,000 High Roller event.
