Ryan Fair Eliminated in 31st Place ($253,941)

Ryan Fair wasted little time in getting in on the action. He raised to 200,000 from middle position and then action folded over to Jeff Shulman in the big blind. Shulman made it one million to go. Fair then stood up from his seat and pushed all of his chips into the middle for over three million total. Shulman made the call.

When the cards were exposed, Shulman showed {K-Spades}

and Fair showed {A-Clubs}

.

The flop was dealt {Q-Clubs}

. Robert Williamson III happened to be walking by the secondary feature table with three beers in hand and stopped dead in his tracks, turned to his friend, who was also carrying three beers, and said "Wait! Wait! Hold up! I gotta sweat this one!"

The dealer then dealt the turn -- the {K-Hearts}

-- and that ended things. "Well that was uneventful!" Williamson exclaimed before proceeding to where he was going. The river then completed the board with the {6-Diamonds}

.

Fair was sent to the rail in 31st place.
