Stuart McMahen Eliminated in 7th Place ($11,471)

Level 30 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Stuart McMahen

Stuart McMahen's exit is a tale of two hands. In the first McMahen moved all in for 1,155,000 and was called by Ben Markway with 1,120,000.

Ben Markway: {7-Spades}{7-Clubs}
Stuart McMahen: {a-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}

The flop came {a-Spades}{5-Spades}{7-Diamonds}, giving Markway a set and all but ending the hand. McMahen would need running cards to avoid being crippled, but they didn't come when the board ran out {q-Diamonds}{k-Spades}.

Two hands later, McMahen moved all-in for his last 35,000. Huey Hulin shoved in late position for 4,500,000 and everyone else got out of the way.

Huey Hulin: {a-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}
Stuart McMahen: {q-Hearts}{4-Spades}

Once again the flop connected with McMahen's opponent in a big way, {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}{j-Diamonds}. And again, McMahen would need running cards to stay alive.

The turn ended things when it came the {2-Hearts}. A meaningless {10-Clubs} completed the board.

McMahen went out in seventh place and will receive $11,471 for his performance in the Southern Poker Open.
