On seventh street, Pereira and Grapenthien checked and Johnson bet again. Pereira opted to fold, while Grapenthien gave it some thought, then flicked in a calling chip.

Johnson showed him his two spades in the hole for a queen-high flush and Grapenthien had to muck his hand.

Bohlman Taken Out

Level 8

Scott Bohlman: {4-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{j-Spades}/{7-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{x-}
Cliff Josephy: {5-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{j-Hearts}/{7-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{a-Clubs}
Ernildo Santos: {9-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{7-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}/{9-Spades}{3-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

Action was on sixth street with Scott Bohlman already all in. Ernildo Santos check-called two bets from Cliff Josephy on sixth and seventh street.

Josephy indicated that he had nothing as he did not immediately flip his hand over but since it was an all in, the dealer turned over the {7-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{a-Clubs} for ace-high while Santos had the winner with a pair of nines. Bohlman could not beat the nines either and he was eliminated.
