Ramdin: {X-}{X-} / {9-Hearts}{A-Spades}{K-Hearts}{2-Spades} / {X-}
Opponent: {X-}{X-} / {J-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{4-Diamonds} / {X-}

On fifth street, four players were involved in a hand that had already seen some action. A player with a pair of threes showing fired the big bet, which got everyone away except Ramdin.

On sixth and seventh streets, Ramdin's opponent kept betting, and Ramdin called both times. Ramdin's opponent pointed at the board, indicating he had nothing more than that. Ramdin showed {5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{K-Spades} for kings up and won the sizable pot.

David Singer had the best hand showing on fifth street with king-high, and he bet. Chris Tryba raised, and Singer called. On sixth street, Singer check-called a bet from Tryba, leaving himself with a mere 700 behind.

Singer checked seventh street, and Tryba checked behind and instantly showed {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{5-Spades}. The pair of aces was good, as Singer mucked his hand to end up dangerously short.

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 100 ante
Marco Johnson
Marco Johnson

Johnson: {X-}{X-}/{6-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{2-Clubs}/{7-Clubs}
Byrd: {X-}{X-}/{K-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{2-Hearts}/{7-Diamonds}

Multiple bets went in on third street, and on fourth street, Sue Byrd bet, and Marco Johnson called. On fifth street, Byrd bet again, and Johnson held his remaining 700 chips in his hand for several seconds and then put them forward to call all in for less.

Johnson showed {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades} in the hole, and Byrd had {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}. Their hands did not change on sixth street, and Johnson needed to improve on seventh street to stay alive. His hand did not improve, and Byrd's pair of aces was best. Johnson was eliminated, and the two-time bracelet winner promptly made his exit.
