Scott Blackman Eliminated in 12th Place ($4,245)

Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 700 ante
Scott Blackman - 12th place
Scott Blackman - 12th place

German soccer star Max Kruse just scored a knockout, as he busted Scott Blackman in 12th place. Kruse raised to 5,000 and Blackman moved all in over the top for 36,600 total. The action folded back to Kruse who looked back down at his cards before making the call.

Both players drew one card.

Kruse showed {8-}{6-}{5-}{2-} and he was up against Blackman's {7-}{6-}{4-}{3-}. Kruse drew a {2-} to turn his hand into a pair of deuces and Blackman was very much alive for a nice double up.

As Blackman squeezed his card hoping for a paint one, he said, "This is not good."

Blackman turned over a {5-} and the pair of fives sent him to the rail.
