Table 1: Sondre Sagstuen Advances to the Final Table

Todd Keikoan managed to double up once before falling to the will of the cards. After a flop of {Q-Spades}{J-Hearts}{10-Clubs}, Keikoan moved all in with his last chips, and Sondre Sagstuen called with {J-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for a pair and an open-eneded straight draw. Keikoan showed {K-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} for a higher open-ended straight draw, and he'd need to improve to survive.

The turn card was the {K-Clubs}, and Keikoan made a pair that he didn't want to make -- it gave Sagstuen a king-high straight. Keikoan needed an ace or a nine on the river (but not the ace of clubs) to chop the pot with identical straights.

The river card was the {2-Clubs}, and Sagstuen won the pot -- and the table -- with a jack-high flush.

Todd Keikoan was eliminated in 15th place, earning $6,634.

Sondre Sagstuen advances to tonight's final table, scheduled to begin at 8:00 pm PDT.
