Mark Newhouse Eliminated in 22nd Place ($9,661)

A few hands after absorbing a bad beat from an opponent who went runner-runner to complete a flush, Mark Newhouse put his remaining 60,000 all in pre-flop from late position and was called by Ben Fineman in the big blind who tabled {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs} and found himself well ahead of Newhouse's A-9.

Newhouse spiked a nine on the flop but Fineman regained the lead when the {Q-Spades} rolled off on the turn. The river blanked out sending Newhouse to the rail in 22nd position.
