Weinberg Eliminates Barrows

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Benjamin Barrows had been clinging to a short stack for much of the day and recently moved all in for his last 40,000 or so. Max Weinberg (not of Conan O'Brien fame unfortunately) was the only caller and the cards were turned up:

Weinberg: {A-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Barrows: {A-Clubs}{5-Clubs}

Barrows was in bad shape and even more so when the flop fell {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}{9-Clubs}, giving Weinberg trip tens. The {3-Spades} on the turn left Barrows drawing dead and the {8-Spades} on the river made his elimination official.
