Eugene Castro Eliminated in 17th Place ($18,471)

Eugene Castro - 17th place
Eugene Castro - 17th place

Action passed to Dennis Murphy on the button and he moved all in for his last 230,000 with Eugene Castro making the call for slightly less in the big blind.

Murphy: {Q-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}
Castro: {K-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}

Great call by Castro and he was looking good for the double up until the board ran out {5-Spades}{8-Spades}{A-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} to pair up Murphy's kicker and leave Castro to make the sombre trek to the cashier. Hopefully $18,471 will ease the pain.
