According to Ben Palmer, he eliminated Phil Laak just before the last break. There was a raise, Palmer called on the button, the small blind called, and Laak came along in the big blind. On a flop of {Q-}{10-}{5-} with two spades, Laak and Palmer got all the chips in, and Laak was at risk.

Laak had top pair with a straight draw and the best flush draw. Palmer had a worse flush draw and a higher straight draw with {K-}{J-}{9-Spades}{8-Spades}. The turn was an ace, giving Palmer Broadway, and it held up.

"He got it in good," Palmer commented, and Palmer is now among the biggest stacks in the room with over 100,000.
