Tommy Vedes Eliminated in 18th Place ($17,300)

Tommy Vedes - 18th Place
Tommy Vedes - 18th Place
We have our first money elimination. Tommy Vedes was in the big blind for his last hand. Antony Lellouche raised to 30,000 and was called in position by Steven Fung, prompting Vedes to call as well. Vedes moved all in with first action on a flop of {9-Hearts} {4-Hearts} {8-Clubs}. Lellouche quickly folded and Fung just as quickly called.

Vedes: {J-Hearts} {10-Diamonds}
Fung: {k-Diamonds} {k-Spades}

"I need a lady," said Vedes.

"We've seen it before," offered Layne Flack. But we would not see it this time. The turn and river were the {j-Diamonds} and {5-Diamonds}. Vedes shipped his stack to Fung and left the table, the last of the Greek Cypriots to be eliminated from this tournament.
