Aram Zerounian Eliminated

Shortly before the break Aram Zerounian survived an all in with a short stack. He screamed as loud as he could as it was hard to mask his sheer elation about avoiding elimination.

"I haven't screamed that loud since I had sex with my wife!" he said which got a few chuckles from everyone around him, including his wife who happened to be standing right behind him on the rail.

Sadly, Aram Zerounian's run at the WSOP is over. He busted out courtesy of a wicked beat by Weldon Jackson. Zerounian moved all in with {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}. Jackson called with {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}. The flop was{Q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}. The turn was the {10-Clubs}. Zerounian improved his hand with a set, but it also gave Jackson more outs with a gutshot. The river was the {J-Spades}. Zerounian couldn't believe that his tournament life was over. Jackson rivered a Broadway straight as Zerounian headed to the rail to be consoled by his wife.

Weldon Jackson increased his stack to 95,000 after that hand.
