Melvin Gibson Eliminated in 7th Place ($520)

Melvin Gibson was eliminated when he shoved all in for about 280,000 and Dave Jeanneau-Cyr called. Gibson was ahead with {a-}{q-} against the {a-}{j-} of Jeanneau-Cyr, but seemed to think he was going to lose.

"Here the ace queen I have been knocked out of the last five tournaments with," he said as he tabled his hand.

As if on queue, the flop came {j-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{9-Clubs} and put him behind. The turn, {8-Spades}, and the river, {5-Clubs}, were no help and Gibson was eliminated in seventh place. He took home CAD $520 for his seventh place finish.

Shortly after Gibson's elimination, Dominic Jipos doubled through Yves Plante. Plante shoved the small blind with ten-high and Jipos called with {a-Spades}{k-Spades}. Jipos won the hand and left Plante very short. He doubled on the next hand to get back over 100,000.
