David “ODB” Baker Eliminated in 8th Place ($13,917)
Level 30
: Limits 100,000/200,000, 0 ante
WSOP bracelet winner David “ODB” Baker fought an uphill battle at the final table as a short stack, and he ultimately found himself in an all-in situation when he was in the big blind.
John Armbrust, who earlier doubled up Baker, raised in the small blind with Q♦8♦. Baker looked down at J♦3♠ and made the call.
The flop brought A♠6♣7♥, which Armbrust bet. Baker called off the rest of his chips, putting his tournament at stake.
The 5♥ on the turn and 8♣ on the river sent Baker to the rail in eighth place for $13,917.
