David Choe Eliminated in 17th Place ($10,632)
Level 25
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
David Choe and Sultan Khair raised back at each other preflop, putting Choe's last 400,000 at risk.
David Choe: A♥A♣4♦5♦
Sultan Khair: Q♥Q♦8♣8♦
The board ran out in Choe's favor with the K♠9♣10♣, but Khair was still drawing to two sets and now had a gutshot to go with it. The turn was the insignificant 5♠, but the table let out a collective, "Ohhhhh!" when the 8♠ peeled on the river, giving Khair three of a kind to win the pot.
