Jose Tavares Eliminated by Matt Graham

Matt Graham
Matt Graham
Four players, including Matt Graham and Jose Tavares saw a flop of {A-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} {6-Spades}. Tavares checked from the big blind, his early position opponent checked, Graham bet 7,000 and the button called. With the action back on Tavares, he potted to 38,000, earning a fold from the early position player. Graham, however, moved all in, and the button got out of the way before Tavares made the call.

Graham {A-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} {9-Spades} {8-Clubs}
Tavares {10-Hearts} {9-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {6-Clubs}

Tavares had bottom two pair and a gutshot straight draw, while Graham was looking at top pair and an open-ended straight draw. Graham filled it on the turn when the {5-Clubs} landed and dragged the pot once the {A-Diamonds} fell on the river, eliminating Tavares in 50th place.

After the hand, Graham was up to 145,000.
