James Mackey Eliminated in 18th Place ($51,188)

Level 30 : 40,000/80,000, 1,000 ante

The action folded around to James Mackey on the button and he moved all in for 275,000. Arne Kern reshoved all in from the small blind for just under 500,000 and the big blind folded.

Mackey showed {q-Hearts}{5-Clubs} but would need to improve against the {a-Hearts}{3-Spades} of Kern. The dealer fanned the {a-Spades}{10-Clubs}{8-Hearts} flop and Kern paired his ace to take control of the hand. The turn {6-Hearts} left Mackey drawing dead and the meaningless {4-Hearts} hit the river.

Mackey wished the rest of his table mates good luck as he headed to the payout line to collect his $51,188 for his 18th place finish.
