Edgar Cruz Eliminated in 17th Place ($4,711)

Edgar Cruz has just been eliminated from the tournament by chip leader Carlos Giron. Here's how the hand went down:

Action folded around the table to Clay Maguire on the button who opened with a raise to 20,000. Giron called from the small blind, as did Cruz in the big.

The flop came down {9-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{8-Spades} and Giron passed the first option to Cruz, who immediately shoved all in for 68,500. Maguire folded and Giron tanked for a solid three minutes before eventually making the call with {10-Spades}{9-Spades}. Cruz tabled {8-Hearts}{7-Hearts}.

Cruz picked up some additional outs after the {Q-Hearts} fell on the turn, giving him a flush draw, but the river blanked ({4-Clubs}) and Giron took down the pot, improving to 720,000 in chips on the day.
