Sam Holden Eliminated in 9th Place ($782,115)

Level 38 : 400,000/800,000, 100,000 ante

Hand #51:

Anton Makiievskyi had the button on the first hand back from the break.

Ben Lamb raised to 1.7 million from under the gun. Sam Holden reraised all in from the small blind for 11.125 million. Lamb called.

Lamb: {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}
Holden: {A-Spades}{J-Spades}

The flop came down {A-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{8-Clubs} and Lamb added top pair and a flush draw. The turn was the {Q-Clubs} and that gave Lamb the flush he needed to leave Holden drawing dead. The river completed the board with the {6-Diamonds}.

Holden began the final table as the short stack and was eliminated in ninth place for $782,115. Lamb moved to 34.4 million in chips.

Sam Holden gives an interview with Kara Scott directly after his bust out.
