Kyle Merron Eliminated in 8th Place ($42,107)

Matthew Parry raised to 225,000 from the button and got called by Kyle Merron in the big blind to bring out the 5♣Q♣8♣ flop.

Merron checked to Parry who continued with a bet of 200,000. Parry called, prompting the dealer to burn and turn the 7♦.

Merron check again and Parry tossed out a bet of 400,000. Merron paused briefly before announcing all in. Parry snap-called to put Merron at risk with one card to come.

Kyle Merron: K♦9♣8♣4♦
Matthew Parry: A♣J♠7♣4♠

When the cards were turned up, Merron quickly saw that he was drawing dead. Both players had flopped a flush with Merron having also flopped a gut-shot straight flush draw, but his one would-be out, the 7♣, was in Parry's hand.

The dealer put out the inconsequential 8♦ on the river to make it official as Merron stood to exit the tournament area in eighth place for $42,107.
