Larry Wright Eliminated in 65th Place ($96,500)

Larry Wright - 65th Place
Larry Wright - 65th Place
Action folded to Kelly Kim on the button and he raised to 80,000. Larry Wright called from the small blind and it was heads up to the flop.

When the flop came {Q-Clubs} {10-Spades} {2-Spades} both players checked. The {J-Clubs} hit the turn and Wright checked. Kim bet 150,000 and Wright moved all in for 631,000 total. Kim called instantly and the players showed:

Kim: {A-Diamonds} {K-Spades}
Wright: {J-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds}

Wright was drawing dead and the {J-Spades} on the river was meaningless. Larry Wright was eliminated in 65th place and takes home $96,500 for his impressive finish.
