Ben Butcher Eliminated in 11th Place (NZ$11,046)

Ben Butcher - 11th Place
Ben Butcher - 11th Place
With the elimination of Ben Butcher we're just one bustout shy of our final table.

Preflop, Jason Brown limped in from the small blind and Butcher checked the big blind. The flop came {3-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{3-Spades}. Brown checked and Butcher bet out 15,000. On the turn {k-Hearts} Brown once again check-called a 15,000 chip bet from Butcher.

When the dealer revealed the {4-Diamonds} on the river Brown quickly said "All in" and Butcher called almost as quickly.

Brown turned over {A-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} for a rivered straight, and Butcher look distraught showing his own {k-Spades}{10-Clubs} for two pair.

Butcher exits in 11th place. Brown moves back to 750,000 in chips.
