Ginikachukwu Izuogu Eliminated

Ginikachukwu Izuogu, who was our chip leader not that long ago, has been eliminated. In a matter of a couple hands, Izuogu parted with every chip in front of him.

The first hand saw Izuogu calling a raise to 35,000 to see a flop of {10-Clubs}{9-Spades}{9-Hearts}. The raiser checked, Izuogu pushed and was insta-called. The raiser showed pocket aces beating Izuogu's A-Q by showdown.

A few hands later, Izuogu's {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} was beat by another player's {A-Clubs}{10-Spades} when four spades hit the board. Izuogu was eliminated in 45th place and takes home $14,480 for his efforts.
