On a flop of {J-Spades}{9-Clubs}{7-Hearts}, Scott Freeman bet 52,000 from UTG and Hal Lubarsky called. The turn was the {6-Clubs}. Freeman bet 140,000, Lubarsky moved all in for 238,000 more and Freeman called. Lubarsky turned over {A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} and was behind to Freeman's turned set of sixes.

Lubarsky's assistant begged for help on the river, screaming for an 8 to hit, but the {J-Hearts} fell, ending Lubarsky's Main Event.

After his elimination, Nolan Dalla called Lubarsky up to the podium and recognized his amazing accomplishment. Lubarsky is legally blind, yet managed to outlast over 6,000 players. Our hats are off to him for being an inspiration to all of us in the poker world.
