Tom Pongrass
One of the two remaining members of Team PokerStars, Eric Assadourian just knocked out Tom Pongrass from the tournament. Assadourian had two eights -- {8-Hearts} {8-Diamonds} -- against the short-stacked Pongrass's {Q-Clubs} {10-Clubs}. All of the money went in preflop.

The board ran out {J-Hearts} {6-Hearts} {5-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} {6-Spades} to send Pongrass to the rail. Assadourian added those 70,000 chips to his stack and now has 350,000 chips.
