Adam Kornuth Eliminated in 7th Place ($32,373)

Level 24
Adam Kornuth - 7th Place
Adam Kornuth - 7th Place

No Limit Hold'em

Michele Limongi opened to 20,000 from early position, and the action folded to Adam Kornuth who moved all in for 265,000 from the small blind. Limongi tanked for nearly two minutes before calling.

Limongi: {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}
Kornuth: {8-Spades}{8-Hearts}

"Who wants an eight?" Limongi jokingly asked the rail.

The flop came down {4-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{7-Spades}, which was no help for Kornuth, and neither was the {7-Hearts} on the turn. Limongi was standing nervously, kissing a lucky coin while the dealer waited for permission to deal the river. The {j-Diamonds} hit the felt, cementing Limongi's tens as the best hand, and Kornuth exited in 7th place.
