Johannes Strassmann - 9th Place

Johannes Strassmann raised to 75,000. Marcus Bower reraised to 300,000 and Gregory Genovese called all in, as did Strassmann. It was a three-way pot and the players showed:

Strassmann: {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

Genovese:

{A-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

Bower:

{J-Diamonds}

{J-Hearts}

The flop came down {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

{4-Hearts}

and the gallery erupted. The turn and river came the {7-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

and

{5-Diamonds}

respectively and Genovese's kings were best. Genovese scooped the pot and Strassmann was eliminated in ninth place. Despite falling ever so short of the TV final table, Strassmann will find comfort in the $71,441 in prize money he earned for his impressive finish in this event.
