Chris Nichol Eliminated in 10th Place ($500)
Level 15
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Slade Edmonds limped under the gun and John Rebollo called from the small blind. Chris Nichols checked his option in the big and it was three-way action to a flop of 9♣7♠4♣.
Rebollo checked and Nichol moved all in for 610,000 after flopping top pair. Edmonds tanked long and hard before making the call and saying, "I'm gonna gamble."
Rebollo folded and the hands were turned up.
Chris Nichol: 9♠6♣
Slade Edmonds: 8♦6♦
The J♥ turn was of no consequence but the 10♠ river was as Edmonds made his straight to dispatch Nichol in 10th place.
