Tai Nguyen and Jason Newburger Eliminated by Brandon Cantu

And the rich get richer...
And the rich get richer...
Three-way preflop all-in:

Brandon Cantu {A-Clubs} {Q-Clubs}

Jason Newburger {8-Clubs} {8-Spades}

Tai Nguyen {A-Spades} {J-Spades}

The flop was {7-Spades} {5-Clubs} {4-Diamonds}, Newburger's pocket eights still leading, but the {A-Diamonds} turned, giving the lead to Cantu. The river was the {3-Clubs} and Cantu made the double KO, eliminating both of his opponents.
