Brett Murray: A♣8♥
Jedidiah Hoffman: K♣Q♦
Murray held the edge preflop, but it did not last as the flop came K♥8♦3♥ to give Hoffman the dominant lead.
The 5♥ turn was of no use to Murray as he needed an ace on the river to stay alive.
Murray would not find it when the Q♣ peeled instead to give Hoffman two pair and eliminate Murray.
Murray earned $7,200 for his finish.
