Mel Judah Eliminated

After taking a hit earlier on in the day, Mel Judah had been battling with his short stack, trying to find the right spot to commit his last chips in the hope of a double up.

When he looked down at {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

on the button he decided to toss in his sub-1,000 chip stack against the opening raise of Casey Kastle who was happy to go to war with his {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

.

The flop wasn't a bad one for Judah as it arrived {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

{6-Spades}

{6-Clubs}

to provide some chop outs, but the {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

turn and

{10-Hearts}

river missed him, to send him to the rail.

Meanwhile Kastle has overcome a slow start to now be back above starting stack with around 12,000 chips.
