Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

Seven-time bracelet winner Billy Baxter has been eliminated from the Seniors Event short of the money.

Makram Merhom raised from the button and Baxter three-bet from the big blind. Merhom moved all in putting Baxter at risk and Baxter made the call.

Merhom showed {j-}{j-} against Baxter's {a-}{q-Clubs}. There was no help for Baxter as the board bricket out and Merhom, who finished 23rd in this event two years ago, moved up to around 55,000.
