Lucas Gomcalve was all in from the small blind for about 45,000 against Zachary Eichenbaum (UTG) and James Blazek (hijack). Any further betting would create a side pot.

The flop came As5h3h, Eichenbaum checked, Blazek moved all in, and Eichenbaum folded.

Gomcalve turned over AhQs for a pair of aces, but he was dominated by Blazek’s AcKh (pair of aces, higher kicker). Gomcalve needed to improve to stay alive.

The turn card was the 3c, the river card was the 10c, and Blazek won the pot with a pair of aces and his king kicker to eliminate Gomcalve in eighth place.

James Blazek  –  375,000  (63 bb)
Lucas Gomcalve  –  Eliminated in 8th Place  ($2,130)

With seven players remaining from a field of 61 entries, the average chip stack is around 218,000 (36 big blinds). The remaining players are guaranteed at least $2,665 each.
