Joe Serock Eliminated in 11th Place ($19,588)

Joe Serock - 11th place
Joe Serock - 11th place

Joe Serock minimum-raised to 24,000 from under the gun, Miguel Proulx called behind him, and both blinds -- Dilyan Kovachev (small) and Stephane Tayar (big) -- called as well.

The flop came {10-Spades}{8-Hearts}{9-Spades}. It checked to Serock who bet 96,000, leaving himself 77,000 behind. Proulx folded quickly, then Kovachev tanked for nearly five minutes before the clock was called. Time running out, Kovachev made his decision.

"All or nothing, I raise," he said. "Good luck to you." Serock called with his remaining chips, showing {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for the flopped straight. Kovachev turned over {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{8-Spades} for a flush draw and two pair.

The turn was the {7-Hearts} and Serock's hand was still best. But the river brought the {8-Clubs}, giving Kovachev the hand and eliminating Serock.

A pause now as we redraw for seats around the not-quite-final ten-handed table, then move over to one of the feature tables across the Amazon ballroom.
