Robert French Eliminated in 8th Place ($41,656)
Level 22
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 60,000 ante
Robert French moved all in for his last 270,000 in early position, and was at risk when David Lin three-bet to 400,000 in the cutoff.
Robert French: 9x8x5x3x
David Lin: Jx10x7x4x3x
French asked for one card, and both hands were turned up once Lin stood pat. Lin revealed his jack-ten, leaving French live to double.
French slowly flipped over a 9x, making a pair to hit the rail in eighth place to mark the first elimination in more than two hours of play.
