Manny Minaya Eliminated in 9th Place ($62,350)
Under the gun, Manny Minaya moved all in for his last lonely 191,000 chips. From the button, Jeff Williams made the call, and that got him heads up with a chance at the knockout. Cards up, gents:
Minaya:
Williams:
Minaya was in trouble, and he'd be looking for something resembling an eight to improve his chances of surviving this all-in showdown. The flop paired both players but really changed nothing as it came out .
The turn, however, changed quite a bit; the left Minaya dead to a three-out chop with a king. The river was paint, but the changed nothing, and that's the end of Minaya's day.
It was another fine run for Minaya here over the past three days, but his bid for his first bracelet has once again come up just a bit short.
