Team Lambrecht Eliminated in 10th Place ($12,202)
A tough few hands for Matthew Lambrecht of Team Lambrecht left him on the rail.
First, Lambrecht shoved for 690,000 from early position and when it got to Zhou Lin of Team Qian in the big blind, he had a decision.
"Ok, let's gamble!' said Lin as he pushed his 605,000 chips into the pot.
Zhou Lin: J♥8♥
Matthew Lambrecht: K♥10♥
Lambrecht was ahead, but not for long as Lin found a pair on the 8♣A♠6♥ flop. A 9♣ on the turn did give Lambrecht a gutshot, but the 4♥ river bricked out.
Shortly after and with just 85,000 remaining, Lambrecht moved all in from under the gun and Peter Patricio made it 300,000. Everybody else folded.
Matthew Lambrecht: K♥8♥
Peter Patricio: 5♦5♣
Lambrecht needed to win a flip to stay alive, and momentarily thought he might when he saw the king on the 5♥Q♣K♠ flop. However, Patricio had flopped a set of fives to leave Lambrecht drawing slim. A 6♦ on turn sealed the deal, and a meaningless A♦ completed the runout.
