Matt Brady Eliminated in 31st Place ($11,520)

Matt Brady - 31st Place
Matt Brady - 31st Place
Matt Brady opened with a raise from the cutoff seat, and big blind Brandon Hall moved all in to put Brady to the test. The defending champ had just about 50,000 chips to start the day, and he committed the rest of his stack to this hand. With his tournament life in jeopardy, the cards were turned up.

Showdown
Brady: {A-Hearts} {J-Clubs}
Hall: {6-Clubs} {6-Spades}

The dealer ran a board of {K-Spades} {5-Diamonds} {5-Clubs} {4-Spades} {Q-Diamonds}, and Brady could not catch up. "Lot of paint out there," he said with a shrug. Matt wished his table luck and headed out the door as T.D. Matt Savage recognized Brady's second-consecutive deep run here in Aruba.
