Jeff Newman Eliminated in 7th Place ($3,580)

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Jeff Newman got his last 95,000 all in preflop and found himself in dire straits against Derek Frye.

Frye: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Newman: {a-Diamonds}{8-Spades}

Newman had the inferior ace and the kicker played when the {10-Hearts}{a-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} flop paired both players. The {k-Clubs} turn locked it up for Frye and he collected Newman's $500 bounty after the {3-Hearts} was run out on the river.
