Grafton Eliminates Hartmann; Hand-for-Hand Play Begins
Pascal Hartmann went all in for his last 265,000 in the hijack and Sam Grafton called from the cutoff. All remaining players folded and the two tabled their hands.
Pascal Hartmann: 
Sam Grafton: 
Hartmann was in trouble before the flop and it came 
, which was not of much help.
Grafton was rooting for Hartmann: "Chop!" he said, hoping for a sweat for a straight to come onboard.
"Such a boring flop," said Hartmann, realizing how slim his chances were. The turn 
spoiled any chances of a chop, leaving Hartmann with one shot at hitting three outs and it would not come as the river 
finished the runout to eliminate him in 11th place.
The tournament now has 10 players remaining, just one spot off the money, meaning players are on the bubble and hand-for-hand pay has began.
