William Durkin: 
Paul Camby: 
Durkin's hopes at a double were drastically reduced as the flop fell 
. The turn 
gave him four more outs, but the river 
proved to be the last card of his tournament as he finished the tournament in 12th place,
Eleven now remain, meaning just one more elimination is needed to reach the unofficial final table of 10.
