Michael Dyer Eliminated In 12th Place ($49,615)

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Michael Dyer
Michael Dyer

The action was picked up in a pot of roughly 1,300,000 on a board showing {j-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{10-Clubs}. Cliff Ziff checked from the big blind to Michael Dyer in the cutoff who slid out a bet of 800,000. Ziff took a moment before announcing all in, covering the 2,100,000 behind for Dyer, who snap-called.

Michael Dyer: {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Cliff Ziff: {k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}

Dyer looked sick to his stomach when he realized he had misread his hand thinking it was {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for a turned straight. Ziff would still need to dodge a ton of outs to score the pot and when the river fell the {9-Hearts}, the jacks and sevens held up to send Dyer to the rail in 12th place.

On the {2-Clubs} river Rossitto kept up the aggression with a bet of 900,000 and Ziff mucked his hand face-up showing {k-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for the missed flush draw.
