Loren Egide Eliminated in 17th Place

With just 8,000 chips left, Loren Egide moved all in under the gun. Next door, Esther Taylor reraised to 15,000, isolating herself against the at-risk player. With the rest of the table ducking out, the cards were turned over.

Showdown:
Egide: {Q-Spades}

Taylor:

The board frowned on Egide, coming {3-Hearts}

. Failing to catch any help, Egide has been sent to the rail. Our early-day chip leader jumped out to a flying start out of the gate, but things took a turn for the worse as the day wore on. Now, just a few places before the money, our one-time chip leader is out the door, proving once more that it's not how you start, but how you finish that makes all the difference.
