Michael McNeil Eliminated in 8th Place ($21,981)

Michael McNeil
Michael McNeil
Michael McNeil never really got it going today and nursed one of the shorter stacks at the table through most of the action.

On his final hand, McNeil and Andrew Margolis both called Joseph Cutler's 32,000 preflop raise. When the cards fell {Q-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{6-Clubs}, action checked to McNeil on the button and he shoved. Margolis called from the big blind and Cutler folded.

McNeil: {Q-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Margolis: {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}

The {7-Spades} on the turn and {A-Hearts} on the river didn't improve McNeil's hand and he left in 8th place with a payday worth $21,891.
