Rep Porter Eliminated in 9th Place ($19,594)

Porter - had a brief good time
Porter - had a brief good time
A nice river for Steven Cowley on the {3-Diamonds} {A-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} board -- he'd raised from the button with {A-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} and Rep Porter called; Porter bet out on the flop and again on the turn and then both players checked the river. Neither had a flush, but Cowley made a bigger two pair on the river to beat Porter's {A-Spades} {3-Hearts}.

Porter managed to lose another big hand to Tommy Hang, leaving him on just 46,000, and was in some trouble.

So when Porter found {A-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} under the gun he raised, and then called a reraise from Jameson Painter one seat down.

Porter got his last in on the {7-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {K-Clubs} flop... but Painter was only too happy to call with his pocket {A-Clubs} {A-Diamonds}, and with not enough help from the {8-Clubs} turn or {5-Clubs} river, we are down to eight.
