Scott Clements got his short stack all-in preflop holding 
and ran into the of Theo Tran. If Clements didn't find some help, we would be heading to our final table.
The 
board was no good for Clements as he was eliminated in 10th place, sending him home with $34,927 for his time.
With that, we are down to nine and the players have been sent on a short break before the final table begins. We will have full chip counts posted very soon.
