Jim Routos knocks the felt after being eliminated in 9th.
Jim Routos knocks the felt after being eliminated in 9th.

Antonin Teisseire opened the action from middle position with a raise to 70,000. Jim Routos three-bet him to 175,000 from the cutoff before Narendra Banwari four-bet bet from the big blind to 400,000. Teisseire folded and Routos moved all in for exactly one million chips. Banwari had Routos barely covered and made the call.

Routos: {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Banwari: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}

The flop was {3-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} and Banwari vaulted into the lead with a pair of queens. The turn was the {7-Diamonds} and the river was the {4-Spades}, both bricks for Routos.

He is eliminated in 9th place while Banwari now has 2.3 million chips.
