Matt Matros Eliminated in 12th Place ($19,672)

Matt Matros had become short after a couple of skirmishes and found himself in a raising war in the limit portion against Bahador Ahmadi. It went to four bets preflop and then Ahmadi called bets on the flop and the all in on the turn of a {2-Spades} {5-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} board.

Matros could only show {K-Spades} {J-Spades}, drawing to just the king as Ahmadi turned over {A-Diamonds} {J-Clubs}. The river was the {Q-Spades}, close but not close enough. Matros shook hands with his conqueror and hit the rail.
