Avraham Arguan Eliminated in 23rd Place ($24,133)

Avraham Arguan
Avraham Arguan
Avraham Arguan has just been sent to the rail by Eric Hicks. Hicks made the first preflop raise, pushing in 50,000 in chips. Arguan came over the top all in for about 300,000, and Hicks called with {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades}. Arguan showed down {A-Hearts}{9-Hearts}.

The board came all rags as it ran {5-Hearts}{5-Spades}{3-Clubs}{10-Spades}{6-Hearts}, and Hicks takes all of Arguan's checks. Arguan walks away with $24,133 for his efforts, and can now make his way to the nearest bed to catch up on some sleep.
