Minh Ly Eliminated in Eighth Place ($30,482)

Minh Ly - 7th place
Minh Ly - 7th place
Hold'em -

There's just not much you can do when you're blind all in. You just have to go with the cards you're dealt and hope lady luck is on your side.

Kyle Hegeman limped in from early position and then Allen Cunningham checked his option in the big blind with Minh Ly all in in the small blind.

The board came {9-Clubs} {6-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} {9-Spades} {8-Spades} and Cunningham and Hegeman checked it down the entire way. All three players showed king-high.

Ly: {K-?} {2-?}
Cunningham: {K-?} {5-?}
Hegeman: {K-?} {Q-?}

Hegeman's king-high with a queen kicker was good enough to take the pot and eliminate Ly in eighth place.
