Hand #18 - Curtis Kohlberg Eliminated in 7th Place (111,786)

Curtis Kohlberg - 7th Place
Curtis Kohlberg - 7th Place
Scott Freeman has the button in Seat 1. Action comes around to the blinds, where Max Greenwood raises it way up to 310,000 from the small. That is enough to cover Curt Kohlberg in the big blind, and he goes into the think tank for a couple minutes, leaning back in his chair and sighing heavily. He stares down at his chip stack, motionless, before he finally does make the call for his last 271,000 chips.

Greenwood: {K-Spades} {8-Hearts}
Kohlberg: {A-Hearts} {7-Spades}

Kohlberg is all in and at risk, but is slightly ahead. Things change fast, though, as the dealer spreads the flop: {K-Hearts} {4-Diamonds} {8-Spades}. Greenwood's top two pair leaves Kohlberg in trouble, drawing to runner-runner. The turn and river don't do it for him, coming {10-Clubs} and {Q-Spades} respectively.

Curt Kohlberg heads to the rail in seventh place, taking home more than $111,000 for his work.
