Ryan Elson Is Eliminated in 24th Place ($333,490)

Ryan Elson
Ryan Elson
Elson and Jon Kalmar checked a flop of {Q-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}, and when the {A-Clubs} hit on the turn Kalmar check-called a 200K bet from Elson. The {8-Hearts} fell on the river and when Elson checked, Kalmar bet 400,000.

Elson asked, "You hit that Ace?"

Kalmar replied, "You missed your flush?"

Elson announced he was all-in and Kalmar insta-called. Elson held {8-Diamonds}{9-Spades} for trip Eights but Kalmar had a straight with {K-Clubs}{10-Clubs}, and that was enough to knock out Elson.
