Jared Hamby Eliminated in 8th Place ($46,077)

Jared Hamby
Jared Hamby

Many people may have pegged Jared Hamby as a favorite heading into today's final table. Even though he started with a small number of chips, his experience has to count for something. The remaining seven players must have taken a collective sigh of relief when he was eliminated.

Baker was in middle position when he raised to 65,000. When action got to Hamby on the button, he went all in for 431,000 with Baker making the call.

Hamby: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}
Baker: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}

It was a classic race position with Hamby maintaining the lead through the {2-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} flop. When the {4-Hearts} fell on the river, Baker collected some more outs with a straight possibility adding to his over cards.

The river was the {5-Clubs}, giving Baker the wheel and sending Hamby to the rail.

Baker is once again our chip-leader with 2,200,000.
