Dean Blatt Eliminated in 8th place ($2,663)

Dean Blatt - 8th Place
Dean Blatt - 8th Place
The button, Farhad Kia, raised to 20,000. The small blind mucked and Dean Blatt moved all in from the big blind for 45,000. Kia made the call for the extra 25,000 chips.

Kia held the lesser hand at the time with {K-Diamonds} {10-Hearts}. Blatt held {A-Hearts} {8-Clubs}, but when the flop came down {K-Spades} {4-Hearts} {3-Clubs}, things flip flopped and now Kia took the lead.

The turn was the {9-Hearts} and the river the {5-Diamonds} to make Blatt our eighth place finisher, taking home $2,663.
