River Put Topp on Top

Patrick Halter was all in preflop for 250,000 with {J-Spades}{10-Clubs} and behind the {K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs} of Marcia Topp. The {A-Spades}{5-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} flop was kind to Halter as it paired his ten to give him the lead, while the {3-Hearts} turn kept him there.

Unfortunately for him, there was one card to come and the {J-Hearts} spiked on the river to give Topp Broadway. With that, Halter was eliminated from the tournament.
