Chuck Pacheco Eliminated in 32nd Place ($23,162)

After seeing a flop of {7-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{6-Clubs} Phil Laak bet 50,000 and Chuck Pacheco moved in for his last 90,000. Laak made the call holding {K-Hearts}{5-Clubs} and an open-ended straight draw, while Pacheco held {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}. The {2-Hearts} on the turn didn't help Laak but the {9-Diamonds} on the river gave him the straight, and that was good enough to knock out Pacheco.
