Jeff Madsen - eliminated

As it often does in poker tournaments, it came down to a flip for Jeff Madsen. He opened for 5,000, then moved in for 27,000 after an opponent on his left three-bet to 18,000. That opponent quickly called.

"Do you have aces?" he asked Madsen.

"No," said Madsen. "I just can't fold this." He opened two tens, {10-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

{10-Clubs}

, and was racing {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{k-Clubs}

. The flop was a clean {6-Hearts}

{6-Hearts}

{7-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

but the

{K-Spades}

on the turn was a killer for Madsen. He was on his way out of the room as soon as the {7-Spades}

{7-Spades}

hit the river.
