Daniel Aldridge Eliminated in 10th Place ($31,219)

After watching a fellow short stack double-up in the previous hand, Daniel Aldridge decided to give it a go himself. Aldridge raised to 70,000 from the button and after Perry Lin reraised enough to put him all-in, Aldridge committed the rest of his chips.

Showdown:

Aldridge: {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}
Lin: {A-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}

Aldridge had Lin dominated with his better kicker and he needed to fade jacks to double through.

Flop: {6-Clubs}{2-Spades}{J-Spades}

Aldridge could not fade the deck and Lin took the lead with a pair on the flop. The {A-Hearts} on the turn solidified things for Lin, and after the {9-Hearts} on the river, he had sent Aldridge home to complete our official final table. Aldridge exited in 10th place and pocketed $31,219 for his run to the top-ten in this tournament.
