Ted Forrest - 9th Place

Vitaly Lunkin has the button. It folded around to Ted Forrest who completed from the small blind. Noah Schwartz then raised to 400,000 from the big blind, enough to put Forrest all in. Forrest thought a moment, then made the call.

Forrest {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{10-Diamonds}

Schwartz

{3-Spades}

{3-Clubs}

The flop came all spades {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{2-Spades}

. Forrest had picked up a gutshot draw in addition to his overs, but he didn't want to see a fourth spade come. The turn was the {8-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

, giving Forrest still more straight outs.

The river was the {4-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

, and Forrest was eliminated. Forrest wins $230,317 for finishing ninth. Schwartz now has 730,000.
