Emmel Eliminates Armstrong

Level 22 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Ben Armstrong
Ben Armstrong

Following a preflop raise to middle position for 30,000, Ben Armstrong jammed all in from the button for the 130,000 or so he had left, then Matthew Emmel reraised all in from the big blind, forcing out the original raiser.

Armstrong had {8-Spades}{8-Hearts} and Emmel {K-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}, and the {7-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{5-Clubs} swiftly swung the advantage Emmel's way. The turn was the {5-Spades} and river the {9-Diamonds}, and Armstrong is out.

Forty players remain.
