Eric DeFontes Eliminated in 9th Place ($60,335)

Eric DeFontes - 9th Place
Eric DeFontes - 9th Place
Jonas Klausen raised to 80,000 from middle position, and it folded around to Eric DeFontes in the big blind who pushed all in for a total of 359,000. Klausen made the call.

DeFontes {4-Spades}{4-Hearts}
Klausen {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

The flop came {6-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}, and now DeFontes had the lead. The turn was the {9-Spades}, and DeFontes was looking for a four to survive. But the river brought the {K-Spades}, and DeFontes is out in 9th place.

Klausen pushes past the 3 million-chip mark on that one, about twice what his nearest foe, Eric Baldwin, currently has.
