Jorge Rivera Eliminated in 10th Place ($15,810)

Level 29 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Jorge Rivera - 10th place
Jorge Rivera - 10th place

Under the gun, Jorge Rivera opened to 455,000, his full stack. The table passed all the way around to the big blind where John Riordan asked, "Can I have a count?" The dealer broke down the stacks, and Riordan took just a minute to consider before confidently announcing the call.

Rivera: {J-Hearts} {J-Diamonds}
Riordan: {A-Diamonds} {6-Clubs}

The {8-Clubs} {7-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds} flop was safe for Rivera's jacks, but the turn was not at all safe. The {A-Clubs} peeled off the deck, and just like that, Rivera was drawing dead to two outs.

River: {8-Hearts}

That's no help to the at-risk player, and Rivera has gone broke on the final table bubble. He'll take home the last of the $15,810 payouts for his efforts this week, and that's not a bad consolation prize in our books.
