Birger Larsen Eliminated in 11th Place ($16,890)

Erick Torres

Level 26 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Ravi Shankar opened to 200,000 from the hijack before Birger Larsen called on the button.

The flop came K♠8♣6♦ before Shankar bet 200,000. Larsen put himself all-in for 50,000 total to be at risk.

Birger Larsen: A♣7♥6♣6♥5♣ All in
Ravi Shankar: A♦Q♦10♣8♦5♥

Larsen was ahead after the flop with a set of sixes, but the Q♥ turn gave Shankar some life with two pair.

The Q♣ river was a horrible river for Larsen as Shankar upgraded to a higher full house to secure the knockout.

Larsen earned $16,890 for his 11th-place finish.
