"Boston" Rob Mariano Eliminated in 7th Place ($7,142)
Level 21
: 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Blair Hinkle raised to 40,000 from the cutoff and Justin Gardenhire called from the small blind. Survivor's "Boston" Rob Mariano then three-bet all in for 429,000 from the big, Hinkle folded, and Gardenhire thought for a bit before making the call.
Boston Rob: 
Justin Gardenhire: 
Boston Rob was primed to double but little did he know a bad beat awaited him as the 
flop delivered Gardenhire a set. Neither the 
turn nor 
river helped Boston Rob and he got the boot in seventh place.
"Good game, man," he offered before shaking hands with Gardenhire and the other five players at the table.
"My mom is gonna be so mad," Gardenhire said after the hand.
