Mark Ketteringham Eliminated in 52nd Place ($135,100)

Mark Ketteringham - 52nd Place
Mark Ketteringham - 52nd Place
Action folded around to Mark Ketteringham on the button and he moved all in for 590,000. Gert Andersen called from the small blind. The big blind passed and the players showed:

Ketteringham: {J-Hearts} {8-Hearts}
Andersen: {A-Spades} {Q-Diamonds}

The board ran out {Q-Clubs} {7-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} {K-Spades} and Ketteringham's hand was second best. Andersen's pair of queens took it down and sent the early chip leader to the rail in 52nd place.

Andersen is inching ever closer to the ten million mark with about 9,840,000 chips.
