Rep Porter Eliminated in 9th Place ($19,594)

[user46392]

Porter - had a brief good time

A nice river for Steven Cowley on the {3-Diamonds}

{3-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

{Q-Spades}

board -- he'd raised from the button with {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

and Rep Porter called; Porter bet out on the flop and again on the turn and then both players checked the river. Neither had a flush, but Cowley made a bigger two pair on the river to beat Porter's {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{3-Hearts}

.

Porter managed to lose another big hand to Tommy Hang, leaving him on just 46,000, and was in some trouble.

So when Porter found {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{7-Diamonds}

under the gun he raised, and then called a reraise from Jameson Painter one seat down.

Porter got his last in on the {7-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

{8-Diamonds}

{K-Clubs}

flop... but Painter was only too happy to call with his pocket {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{A-Diamonds}

, and with not enough help from the {8-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

turn or

{5-Clubs}

river, we are down to eight.
