Sammy Farha Eliminated in 11th Place ($43,076)

Sam Farha - 11th Place
Sam Farha - 11th Place

Three-time World Series of Poker gold bracelet and one of the best Omaha players in the world, Sammy Farha, has just hit the rail.

Action started with Steven Silverman limping in from the hijack seat. Farha followed him into the pot from the cutoff seat and then Jason Mercier called from the button. Andy Seth completed from the small blind and Jan-Peter Jachtmann potted it to 120,000 from the big blind. Only Farha made the call.

The flop came down paired with the {9-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{5-Spades} and Jachtmann checked. Farha bet 150,000 and Jachtmann made the call.

The turn was the {8-Clubs} and Jachtmann checked. Farha bet 600,000. Jachtmann reraised all in and Farha called it off for about 775,000 total.

Jachtmann: {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}
Farha: {J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{5-Hearts}

The river didn't give Farha a full house when the {3-Hearts} came and he was eliminated in 11th place. Jachtmann moved to about 2.35 million while the remaining 10 players are relocating up to the ESPN Main Stage.
