Nico Fierro Eliminated in 8th Place ($25,880)

Nico Fierro - 8th Place
Nico Fierro - 8th Place

Nico Fierro raised to 50,000 only to have Martin Sansour move all-in. Fierro snap-called for his stack of about 450,000 and was the one at risk. The crowd let out a collective gasp when the two turned over their cards:

Sansour: {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}
Fierro: {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}

Fierro held the dominating hand but things got interesting when the flop came {10-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{J-Diamonds}. Sansour picked up outs with his straight draw and needed to hit a nine or ace to complete it. The {5-Hearts} on the turn was neither and it was down to the river. The dealer burned and flipped the {9-Hearts}! Sansour's contingent let out a cheer as Fierro could only shake his head in disappointment. He was eliminated from the tournament in eighth place and will take home $25,880 for his efforts.
