Kenny Milam Eliminated in 8th Place ($25,966)

Kenny Milam - 8th Place
Kenny Milam - 8th Place
From late position, Billy Kopp came in with a raise to 31,000. Two seats down, Kenny Milam moved all in for his last 86,000. Kopp quickly called, and Milam's tournament life was hanging in the balance.

Showdown
Kopp: {K-Spades} {K-Hearts}
Milam: {A-Hearts} {7-Diamonds}

The flop was dry, coming {9-Hearts} {10-Clubs} {3-Spades}. The {7-Hearts} on the turn opened the door just a little as Milam picked up a pair. Unfortunately for him though, the river blanked off with the {2-Diamonds}, and with that, Kenny Milam becomes our 8th-place finisher. He'll take home nearly $26,000 for his work over the past three days.
