Maimone Goes Home

Nicholas Maimone was all in for his last 170,000 against Kevin Iacofano. Maimone's {a-Spades}{9-Spades} was well ahead of Iacofano's {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}, but there was an eight on the {a-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} flop. The turn and river came {5-Diamonds}, {7-Hearts} respectively, and Maimone was eliminated from the tournament in 30th.
