Jordan Young Eliminated in 9th Place ($54,936)

Jordan Young - 9th Place
Jordan Young - 9th Place

It's finally happened. After what seemed like an eternity, we've had our first bust-out from this final table!

The action folded around to Jordan Young who open-shoved from the small blind with {K-Spades}{6-Diamonds}, only to be snapped off by Robert Koss, who revealed {A-Clubs}{3-Spades}.

The railbirds crowded in to catch the flop, which was {J-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{J-Hearts}. No change. Young's supporters called for the king, but instead, the {A-Diamonds} came down on the turn and Young was drawing dead. The river {3-Hearts} completed the board and a warm round of applause went up from the gallery for Young, who departs us in 10th place to collect $54,936.

As Koss sat back down and raked in his chips, a well-watered spectator cried out "Run it twice!" This caused a ripple of laughter through the room, but Koss simply smiled and shook his head.
