Noah Siegel Eliminated in 23rd Place ($73,325)

Noah Siegel--23rd Place
Noah Siegel--23rd Place
Robin Keston of the UK just took down a huge pot, eliminating Noah Siegel from the tournament in the process. The hand was sparked by an initial pre-flop raise of 27,000 made by Isaac 'westmenloAA' Baron. Keston, sitting to Baron's immediate left, re-raised, making it a total of 72,000 to go. The action then fell to Siegel who pushed his entire stack (~230,000) across the betting line, prompting everyone but Keston to get out of the way.

Keston got up out of his chair and asked for a count, but he was calling all the way with {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}; Siegel tabled {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs} and the race was on.

An eight-high board favored Keston's queens and thus Siegel was sent to the rail in 23rd place, collecting $73,325 in prize money for his efforts.
