Makhija Eliminated

After the button had raised to 425, Amit Makhija moved all in for a total of 1,600. The button made the call with {Q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} but was way behind Makhija's {A-Spades}{10-Hearts}.

Makhija had to do a double take when the flop came {7-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds}, giving him a pair of aces but the button a flush draw. The {6-Diamonds} on the turn gave the button the said flush draw and left Makhija drawing dead. After the {9-Clubs} was put out on the river, Makhija made his exit from the tournament.
