Erdman Eliminated by Testa

Travis Erdman - 9th Place Finisher
Travis Erdman - 9th Place Finisher
Short stack Travis Erdman chose to make a move just five minutes after the first cards were dealt, opening with an all-in shove from late position. He was called rather quickly by Gabriel Testa, who tabled two black jacks; Erdman produced the {5-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}.

The {7-Spades}{K-Spades}{8-Diamonds} flop was a good one for Erdman, as he picked up an open-ended straight draw. The turn brought the {A-Spades}, lessening Erdman's outs, as it gave Testa nine outs to a flush, effectively stealing two of Erdman's outs to a straight. The {8-Spades} fell on the river, gving Testa a hand-clinching flush and a nice sized pot to start the afternoon.

For his ninth-place finish, Erdman picked up $14,239 in prize money.
