Ty Reiman Eliminated in 17th Place ($18,430)

Ty Reiman - 17th Place
Ty Reiman - 17th Place
Ty Reiman can't catch a break. He's just lost his third consecutive big pot, and this one cost him the remainder of his once-mighty stack.

After a raising war preflop, Reiman and Eric Baldwin were all in with similar stacks of about 450,000 apiece. Baldwin turned over {K-Hearts} {K-Spades}, and Reiman slumped in his chair, tabling {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Spades}.

The board ran out {6-Diamonds} {A-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} {6-Hearts} {5-Clubs}, holding Baldwin's kings and shipping him the biggest pot of the tournament so far. When the chips were counted down, Reiman was slightly covered, and Baldwin has now vaulted up to a very dangerous 920,000.
