Craig Boyd Eliminated in 55th Place ($108,047)

Craig Boyd - 55th Place
Craig Boyd - 55th Place
We're down to six tables after the recent elimination of Craig Boyd in 55th place. Boyd open-shoved from the button for 850,000 with {K-Hearts} {10-Diamonds}. Ben Lamb was in the small blind and decided to look Boyd up witih {A-Clubs} {6-Hearts}. Boyd paired kings on a flop of {7-Hearts} {K-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds}, but Lamb spiked an ace on the turn, {A-Hearts}. That left Boyd looking for any king, ten or queen on the river. Instead he found the useless {9-Hearts}.

Boyd's elimination moves Lamb up to 5.5 million in chips.
