Vinny Lingham Eliminated in 8th Place ($295,883)
Level 21
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Joao Vieira raised to 500,000 in the cutoff and Vinny Lingham jammed all in for 3,000,000 in the big blind. Vieira snapped him off and the cards were on their backs for the first time at the final table.
Vinny Lingham: A♥5♥
Joao Vieira: K♣K♦
The flop came J♦10♦7♥ and Lingham was still left looking for one of three remaining aces. The 6♣ on the turn brought in no further backdoor draws and the 3♥ on the river was not it. Lingham was the first player eliminated at the final table and will go home in eighth place.
