Art Demmerley Eliminated in 8th Place ($1,100)

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante
Art Demmerley
Art Demmerley

This was a wild one. John Stempien opened to 28,000 from early position, Art Demmerley called from directly behind and then Conrad St. Hilaire three-bet to 70,000. Siavash Banai then four-bet shoved for 144,000 from the big blind. Stempien folded and Demmerley reshoved. St. Hilaire paused briefly before announcing a call, having them all covered.

St. Hilaire: {K-Clubs}{K-Hearts}
Demmerley: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}
Banai: {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}

It looked like Hilaire was poised for the double knockout until the {9-Hearts} appeared in the window on the {9-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{6-Clubs} flop. Banai darted out of his seat in celebration, and the {5-Spades} turn and {6-Hearts} river secured his triple up. St. Hilaire scooped the side pot and eliminated Demmerley in the process.
