Ben Lamb Eliminated in 11th Place ($11,027)
Silence of the Lamb
Despite a plucky performance that would make Rocky look like a quitter, Ben Lamb has finally been despatched courtesy of Terrence Chan. I joined the action on the flop, all the chips flying in with Lamb's ahead, but vulnerable against Chan's .
"I'm going to hit a backdoor flush," warned Lamb.
"Let's put it this way," replied Chan, "someone's going to make a flush."
And sure enough, Chan flushed out his opponent on the turn. The river was academic (although I feel obliged to report it) and Lamb was chopped from the tournament.
