Lucas Lew Eliminated in 12th Place ($12,443)
Level 35
: Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
Lucas Lew raised to 1,300,000 from the button and got called by Kelly Gall in the big blind leading to a 8♦4♥6♣ flop.
Gall checked over to Lew who continued with a bet of 1,200,000. Gall called to bring out the 3♥ on the turn
Gall checked to Lew again who tossed out a bet of 3,000,000. Gall counted out a check-raise to 7,200,000 and Lew quickly jammed. Gall snap-called and sent both players to a two card runout with Lew's tournament life at risk.
Lucas Lew: A♣8♠
Kelly Gall: 7♦5♦
When the cards were turned up, Lew got the unfortunate news that he was drawing dead as Gall had flopped the nut straight.
The dealer put out the inconsequential 6♠ on the river and made Lew's exit official as he headed to the payout desk in 12th place for $12,443.
