Nam Le Eliminated in 16th Place ($7,254)

Nam Le - 16th Place

Nam Le started the action by raising pot to 35,000, leaving himself just a few thousand behind. Thom Werthmann was next to act, and he reraised all in. Everyone else folded back to Le, who made the call. The cards were tabled, and Le was in rough shape.

Le: {a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Werthmann: {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

The flop was safe for Werthmann, coming {2-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{4-Spades}. The {4-Clubs} on the turn gave Le some outs for a chop, but he wouldn't find them on the river, as the dealer peeled off the {q-Diamonds}. Werthmann is up to 145,000 after the hand, while Le is heading to the payout desk.
