Owen Crowe Eliminated in 15th Place ($463,201)

Owen Crowe - 15th Place
Owen Crowe - 15th Place
Ivan Demidov raised to 330,000 from under the gun and both Chino Rheem and Joe Bishop called. Owen Crowe moved all in from the button for 1.84 million and Demidov made the call. Rheem and Bishop got out of the way and Crowe's {9-Hearts} {9-Spades} were racing against Demidov's {A-Clubs} {Q-Spades}.

The {J-Hearts} {J-Diamonds} {10-Spades} flop wasn't a good one for Crowe, as another ten would counterfeit his nines. The turn card was even worse--the {Q-Clubs} which paired Demidov. Crowe still had a straight draw, but the river brought the {2-Spades} and Owen Crowe was eliminated from the Main Event.
