Hertzel Zalewski Eliminated in 24th Place ($7,621)

Hertzel Zalewski - 24th Place
Hertzel Zalewski - 24th Place
Isaac Baron, Hertzel Zalewski, and Theo Jorgensen all checked a flop of {6-Spades} {5-Hearts} {3-Spades}. When the {8-Hearts} hit the turn, Baron bet 75,000 from the hijack seat, Zalewski called all in for 32,000 from the cutoff, and Jorgensen reraised all in for 122,000. Baron called the balance and the cards were turned up.

Baron {10-Diamonds} {9-Hearts} {8-Clubs} {6-Diamonds}
Zalewski {K-Hearts} {J-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} {8-Diamonds}
Jorgensen {J-Spades} {8-Spades} {7-Clubs} {4-Clubs}

Jorgensen was far out in front with an eight-high straight and a flush re-draw to Baron's two pair and Zalewski's pair of eights. The river fell the {10-Spades}, Jorgensen hitting his flush on the river to take down the massive pot.

Zalewski was eliminated in 24th place while Baron was crippled to only 4,000 in chips.
