Thomas Holowchuk got his last chips in good with {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}, but Anthony Garofalo had him covered and was racing with {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}. Holowchuk's horse came up lame when the flop fell {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} giving Garofalo trip aces.

He was drawing dead to one of two remaining queens. The {6-Hearts} on the turn was no help and neither was the {j-Diamonds} on the river.

He was felted in 79th place, earning $2,374. Garofalo chipped up to about 2.2 million as players headed into the color-up break.
