Hand #36 - Steven Garfinkle Eliminated in 10th Place ($476,926)

10th Place - Steven Garfinkle
10th Place - Steven Garfinkle
Hand #36 - Hevad 'Rain' Khan has the button in seat 10, Steven Garfinkle moves all in from middle position for 3.515 million, and Raymond Rahme calls from the small blind. Garfinkle shows {A-Clubs}{3-Spades}, and Rahme has {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}. Garfinkle needs to improve to stay alive.

The flop comes {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}, and the weary crowd cheers as Rahme flops a set of queens, and then the tone changes as they realize that Garfinkle actually picked up an extra out, as a ten will make him an ace-high straight.

The turn card is the {6-Hearts}, and Garfinkle needs a ten on the river to survive.

The river card is the {2-Diamonds}, and nine players and most of the audience explode into cheers as Raymond Rahme wins the pot with three queens.

Steven Garfinkle is eliminated in tenth place, earning $476,926.
