Jonathan Job Eliminated in 12th Place ($32,193)

Jonathan Job was left with just over two big blinds after his hand with Joe Hebda and was in the small blind. Aaron Steury opened with a raise, Hebda called and Job stuck the rest of chips in the pot.

Steury and Hebda checked all the way to the river and the board showed {K-Spades} {5-Spades} {10-Spades} {2-Clubs} {5-Diamonds}. Hebda turned over {A-Clubs} {Q-Spades} and Job mucked, collected his things and took his payout slip to the desk.

Quads for Quinn

Drazen Ilich was under the gun and opened for 180,000, which Shawn Quinn three-bet to 400,000 from the small blind. Both players proceeded to check the {7-Spades}{7-Clubs}{Q-Spades} flop, as well as the {6-Hearts} turn. When the {8-Clubs} appeared on the river, Quinn bet 300,00 and Ilich quickly folded.

Quinn let out a long sigh and shook his head as he turned over {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} for flopped quads. Unfortunately for him, he didn't get paid off. "I was hoping you had a queen," he said to Ilich.

Remember, it is not an official final table until we're at nine players. So here is the ten-handed "final table":

Alan Murphy Eliminated in 10th Place ($32,193)

Action folded to Eric Crain in the cutoff and he opened for 185,000. After the button folded, Aaron Steury three-bet to 525,000 from the small blind. A short-stacked Alan Murphy was in the big blind and decided this was the time to go, so he pushed in 675,000. Crain made the call as did Steury, with the latter asking if he could reraise (he could not).

When the flop fell {4-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{4-Spades}, Steury led out for 855,000 and Crain got out of the way.

Showdown
Murphy: {J-Clubs}{10-Hearts}
Steury: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}

Murphy needed runner-runner to survive, which meant the {5-Clubs} turn left him drawing dead. The meaningless {A-Spades} was run out on the river as Murphy made his exit in 10th place, to a nice round of applause we might add.
