Dave Elliott Eliminated in 8th Place ($4,765)

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Dave Elliott - 8th Place
Dave Elliott - 8th Place

Dave Elliott limped in from the cutoff, John Meyer raised to 140,000 on the button, and Atesa Pacelli cold-called in the big blind. Elliott called as well.

The dealer fanned {6-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}, Pacelli and Elliott both checked, and Meyer cut out 400,000. Pacelli folded, Elliott moved all in, and Meyer shrugged, then called.

Elliott: {k-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Meyer: {a-Clubs}{5-Spades}

Meyer held top pair, but Elliott could double through with a diamond or running straight cards. The {10-Clubs} on the turn kept one of Elliott's straight draws alive - a jack would give him Broadway - but the {4-Hearts} bricked off on the river.

Meyer exited in eighth place, while Meyer is up over two million chips.
