Barnhart Busts Pedersen

We're not sure of the betting, but we do know that Thomas Pedersen wound up all in preflop in the small blind for his last 410,000 and was squaring off against Sam Barnhart in the big.

Showdown
Pedersen: {J-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Barnhart: {A-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}

Barnhart was ahead and stayed there on the {5-Hearts}{3-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} flop; however, the {K-Spades} turn did provided Pedersen with an open-ended straight draw. Barnhart, who won the first bracelet of the year by winning the $1 Million National Championship, has been running well and continued that streak by dodging the river, which was the {7-Spades}.

Pedersen missed his draws and was eliminated from the tournament. Barnhart is up to 3.5 million.
