Eights Get the Job Done for George

William Esmingeaud was all in preflop holding {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs} and racing against the {8-Spades}{8-Hearts} of Gil George. The {9-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop was no help to Esmingeaud, but the {7-Clubs} turn did give him a flush draw. Much to George's delight, the {4-Hearts} blanked on the river and he sent Esmingeaud home in 49th place.

Meanwhile, a short-stacked Jasper Vanvlasselaer was eliminated in 48th place.
