Charlie Dawson: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}

Ryan Hohner open-jammed from the hijack and Charlie Dawson called on the button holding less.

Ryan Hohner: {a-Spades}{9-Spades}
Charlie Dawson: {a-Hearts}{7-Hearts}

Dawson was in need of some help but didn't get any from the {10-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{8-Diamonds} flop.

The {q-Diamonds} turn gave Hohner the staright and Dawson was drawing to a chop at best.

The river {3-Clubs} sealed Dawson's fate as he took his exit in seventh place.

Pavel Milanov open-jammed under the gun and was called by Ryan Hohner from the small blind.

Pavel Milanov: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}
Ryan Hohner: {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

The dealer then dropped the meaningless {6-Diamonds} on the river and Milanov took his leave in sixth place.
