Nicholas Muraco Eliminated in 18th Place ($11,071)

The first elimination in the money has just occurred, with Nicholas Muraco our 18th-place finisher. The last hand of Muraco's night saw him commit the last of his chips on the turn with a board showing {9-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}. The player he was up against was Samuel Golbuff who held {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}. Muraco's {k-Spades}{j-Hearts} would need to hit a ten to see him survive, but the {8-Hearts} on the river changed nothing and he was out the door with a $11,071 min-cash.
