Fox Eliminates The Irishman

Sylvester "Vesty" Geoghegan

Action folded around to Dustin Fox in the small blind, who made it 36,000 for Vesty Geoghegan to call. Rather than call, Vesty opted to shove the rest of his chips into the middle and was called almost immediately by Fox; these were their hands:

Fox: {J-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}
Geoghegan: {Q-Clubs}{9-Hearts}

Things were looking good for Vesty to double up until the dealer spread the {K-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{A-Clubs} flop, giving Fox a pair of jacks and the lead in the hand. Vesty would need to hit a queen, a ten or running diamonds to stay alive, but was unable to get lucky this time around as the board filled out {3-Spades}, {2-Diamonds}.

For his 4th place finish, Geoghegan will take $56,955 back home with him to Ireland. Fox stacked up right around 600,000 in chips after the hand.
