Sean Winter Eliminated in 11th Place ($130,082)

Level 18 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Sean Winter
Sean Winter

Sean Winter was out of his seat, observing the other table while the deal got underway. He just made it back to his seat in time to play his hand and opened to 280,000 from under the gun. The action folded to Jason Koon in the big blind, who three-bet to 1,200,000.

Winter, who had around 4,500,000, said, "Everything but 5,000." Koon jammed, and Winter put in his last chip.

Sean Winter: KKAll in
Jason Koon: AA

"Why did you have to give it to me," bemoaned Winter as his kings couldn't improve on the J8576 runout.

Koon offered his condolences and was then very complimentary about his compatriot as Winter departed the tournament area.
