Andrew Lichtenberger Eliminated in 10th Place ($44,195)

Andrew Lichtenberger is the latest casualty of one-man wrecking crew Sam Stein. Stein opened for 115,000 pre-flop, with Lichtenberger making the call in position. Stein uncharacteristically checked the flop, {5-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} {J-Spades}. Lichtenberger bet 150,000. As we noted earlier, Stein doesn't often fold the flop and he didn't do so here.

On the turn {7-Hearts}, Stein checked a second time. Lichtenberger didn't slow down, firing 315,000. Again Stein called, taking the two players to a blank of a river {3-Diamonds}. Stein checked a third time. Lichtenberger took that as his cue to continue telling his story. He moved all in for 975,000. Stein took about thirty seconds before sliding a call over the betting line.

Lichtenberger immediately rapped the table, "Good call." He turned up a total airball, {K-Spades} {Q-Spades}. His triple-barrel bluff was called down by Stein with {10-Spades} {10-Diamonds}. As a result Lichtenberger is out and Stein's tournament-leading stack has grown to 7.3 million chips.
