Jimmy Wong Eliminated in 8th Place ($82,858)

In the previous hand, Jimmy Wong limped from the small blind and then Richard Lyndaker raised to 40,000 from the big blind. Wong called, but wasn't happy about doing so.

The flop came {A-?}

and Wong shoved all in for around 250,000. Lyndaker folded and couldn't really understand why Wong shoved. Wong slammed over {K-?}

for just king high.

On the very next hand, Wong raised from the button. Lyndaker came over the top and then Wong immediately moved all in. Lyndaker announced, "I call." Wong turned up {A-Spades}

and jumped from his chair. Lyndaker rolled over {A-Diamonds}

.

Wong yelled, "Tens lucky!"

The dealer dealt the flop, {J-Diamonds}

. Then a big {10-Diamonds}

hit the turn and Wong slapped his hands together. But just like that it was gone again when the {Q-Hearts}

hit the river. This time Lyndaker slapped his hands together as he got the elimination of Wong.

Wong left the tournament area with a smile on his face, just as he played with all day and night long.
