After some pre-flop action, Eric Hershler moved all in, and Thomas Wahlroos called. Hershler showed {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}, and Wahlroos had {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} -- it was a race situation.

The board came {9-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{5-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}, and Wahlroos's pocket eights held up to win the pot. Eric Hershler, who earned his seat by winning the recent WPT L.A. Poker Classic at Commerce Casino, was eliminated in 48th place, earning $61,880.
