Victor Ramdin Eliminated in 9th Place ($18,577)

Level 24

Omaha-8:

From under the gun, a short stacked Victor Ramdin made it 40,000 to go, effectively committing himself to this hand. Both Jonathan Tamayo and Denis Ethier made the call and we saw a flop of {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}.

Ramdin checked his action and Tamayo fired out a bet of 20,000. Ethier mucked his cards and Ramdin check-raised to 40,000, placing his last chips into the middle. Tamayo made the call to put the Team PokerStars Pro at risk.

Showdown:

Ramdin: {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{2-Spades}
Tamayo: {A-Spades}{3-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{Q-Spades}

Ramdin's pair of eights were crushed by Tamayo's flopped trip sevens and he would need to spike an eight in order to claim the high half of the pot. After the {5-Clubs} fell on the turn, Ramdin added a low draw to his slim chances. He would need to catch a four or a six in order to claim the low half of the pot, or an eight for the scoop.

River: {5-Spades}

With that, Tamayo filled up and Ramdin hit the rail in ninth place, earning $18,577 for his efforts.

Sarah caught up with Victor just before the final table.
