Marwan Nassif Eliminated in 11th Place ($9,000)

Marwan Nassif - 11th Place
Marwan Nassif - 11th Place
The action folded around to Marwan Nassif in the small blind who open-shoved for all of his last 240,000 chips. Herman Marchese immediately called in the big blind.

Nassif: {5-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}
Marchese: {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}

Nassif was on the steal as Marchese had woken up with a premium hand. The flop gave Nassif some hope when it fell {4-Clubs}{2-Spades}{9-Diamonds} and he improved further on the {6-Clubs}, turn but the {7-Hearts} river missed, to send Nassif home in 11th place.

Ten players remain and play will proceed on two five-handed tables under hand-for-hand conditions.
