Hand #28 -

Melvin Jones has the button in Seat 5. David Bach open-raises to 130,000. Theo Tran calls from the small blind, as does Chris Ferguson from the big blind. The flop comes {K-Clubs} {9-Spades} {5-Hearts}. Tran and Ferguson both check to Bach, who checks behind. Fourth street is the {3-Hearts}. Tran and Ferguson check to Bach again.

Bach tanks for about a minute before pushing all in. Ferguson removes his sunglasses and starts massaging his temples while Tran, hand on his forehead, asks for a count. The dealer counts down Bach's stack as 600,000. Tran takes two minutes before reraising all in himself, quickly folding Ferguson.

Bach shows {7-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} for a double gutshot straight draw; Tran has {J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for middle pair. Tran gets up from his seat and goes back to his cheering section in the back corner to watch the river come down {2-Clubs}.

David Bach is eliminated in 8th place, collecting $117,987.
