Ben Lamb Eliminated in 12th Place ($56,140)

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Ben Lamb - 12th Place
Ben Lamb - 12th Place

Ben Lamb open-shoved his last 200,000 or so from the hijack seat, and Taylor Paur, the man who crippled him, called from the cutoff. All other action folded, and the hands were opened.

Lamb: {a-Clubs}{4-Clubs}
Paur: {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

Lamb was crushed, and the hand was over instantly because the flop fell {j-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{7-Hearts}, giving Paur the nut-flush with a redraw to a royal flush just for kicks. The turn and river came {4-Hearts}, {a-Spades}, respectively, and Lamb was eliminated in 12th place.

If our math is right, Lamb earned 36 Player of the Year points to extend his total to 522.25. He now has a 64-point advantage over his closest competitor; Phil Hellmuth.
