Marty Wilson - 9th Place
Marty Wilson - 9th Place
The button was with Ed Clark in Seat 3. Fred Berger raised to 90,000 and it was folded around to Marty Wilson who moved all in for 439,000 total. Berger then went into the tank. A call would involve most of his chips. He sat for about five minutes cutting chips and thinking about the call. Finally he made the call.

Wilson: {8-Hearts} {8-Diamonds}
Berger: {A-Hearts} {Q-Clubs}

A classic race situation was presenting itself. The flop crushed Wilson when the {Q-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds} {K-Hearts} hit the flop. Only one of the remaining eights would win the hand for Wilson. No help came for Wilson as the turn fell the {J-Hearts} and the river came the {7-Spades}.

Marty Wilson becomes our 9th place finisher and will receive $34,312.
