Kevin Houghton Eliminated in 22nd Place (€46,100)
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Kevin Houghton made it 125,000 under the gun before Sergio Carro Marin three-bet to 300,000 out of the hijack. Once it folded back to Houghton, he called to see a flop.
The dealer produced a monotone flop of J♦2♦4♦, which Houghton checked. Marin checked behind and the 9♠ rolled off on the turn. Houghton led out for 250,000 and Marin called.
The 9♣ completed the board and after using a time bank card, Houghton jammed for 545,000. Marin snap-called and was shown A♠J♥ by Houghton for a pair of jacks. Marin had that beat with A♦9♦ for the flopped nut flush, and Houghton was out in 22nd place.
