Nick Gandhi Eliminated in 9th Place ($2,832)

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante
Nick Gandhi - 9th Place
Nick Gandhi - 9th Place

James Gettinger raised to 50,000 in the hijack seat, Nick Gandhi three-bet to 120,000 in the cutoff, and Bennett Ellenbogen cold-called in the small blind. Gettinger quickly got out of the way, and the dealer fanned a flop of {9-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{k-Clubs}.

Ellenbogen checked, Gandhi fired out a continuation bet, Ellenbogen moved all in, and Ghandi immediately called.

Ghandi: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}
Ellenbogen: {j-Hearts}{j-Spades}

Ellenbogen flopped a set of jacks, but Gandhi was still alive when the turn brought the {k-Spades}. Any ace or king on the river would keep him alive and double him up, however the {6-Diamonds} was a meaningless card.

He was eliminated in ninth place, while Ellenbogen is up to 1.7 million chips.
