Peter Rho Eliminated in 8th Place

Peter Rho bet all but his last two 500 chips from the button. Sorel Mizzi then announced all in from the small blind, and with the big blind out of the way, Rho threw in his last two chips.

Rho: {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

Mizzi:

{A-Clubs}

{J-Diamonds}

The board brought a little sweat with it reading {7-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

{5-Diamonds}

{8-Hearts}

{7-Diamonds}

to give Rho outs. Any queen or ten would give him a pair, as well as any diamond for a flush. However, the {k-Spades}

{k-Spades}

would end his run and give him an 8th place finish. Rho added an Aussie Millions cash of $16,907 to his CV that includes five WSOP cashes and two WPT cashes.

As Rho headed to the booth to collect his money, Mizzi chipped back up and is now sitting on over 130,000.
