Scott Mauer Eliminated in 4th Place ($4,950)

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Scott Mauer - 4th Place
Scott Mauer - 4th Place

In a limped pot, the board read {10-Spades}{k-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} after everyone checked the flop, and Mark Kehrees bet 4,000. Big blind Scott Mauer made it 14,000, and Donald McArthur cold-called, while Kehrees dumped his hand. The river brought the {10-Clubs}, and Mauer bet 26,000.

"I'm all in," McArthur said after about 45 seconds.

Mauer called fairly quickly, and Kehrees turned over {10-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for tens full. Mauer showed he'd taken a bad beat as he held {9-}{7-} for a turned straight.
