Mike Zulker Eliminated in 9th Place ($77,778)

With action on Jason Potter in the hi-jack, he opened to 100,000 only to have a short-stacked Mike Zulker push all in on the button. Potter called and the cards were tabled.

Potter: {K-Diamonds}

Zulker:

The flop fell down {K-Clubs}

to give both players a pair, and Zulker the stonger kicker of the two.

When the turn landed the {6-Diamonds}

Potter gained a flush-draw to add to his outs to eliminate Zulker.

The rail pressed hard, the crowd stood and the dealer burn and turned the {J-Clubs}

to give Potter a superiour two-pair and send Zulker to the rail in 9th place.

As a dejected Zulker exited the tournament floor to collect his $77,778, Potter raked in the pot to move to around 1,600,000 in chips.
