John Racener Eliminated in 8th Place ($24,797)

Level 24

Stud 8/b

John Racener got his money in ahead with {a-Spades}{3-Diamonds} / {6-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} on fifth street against Eric Buchman's {J-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} / {A-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}. Buchman pulled the {5-Diamonds} on fifth to take a big lead with his flush, but Racener caught the {3-Hearts} to make two pair and keep himself drawing live. He needed to fill up to stay afloat, but his seventh card was the {6-Clubs}, a blank.

That's the end of Racener's day in 8th place, good for just less than $25,000.
