Karl Fenton Eliminated in 16th Place (21,765)

Taylor Larkin raised the minimum on the button and Karl Fenton defended his big blind. On the {A-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{8-Clubs} flop, Larkin continuation bet 53,000 and, after a brief pause, Fenton made the call.

After both players had checked the {5-Clubs} flop, Fenton reached out for a column of orange chips on the {Q-Clubs} river and bet what appeared to be 150,000, although I think the dealer announced it as 125,000 as there was one green 25,000 chip concealed a couple of chips down.

With little hesitation, Larkin announced all-in.

Perplexed by the move, Fenton exhaled and sat back in his chair before glancing back down at his chips. It didn't take him too long to make the call, however, clearly believing that his opponent's line didn't make sense for the rivered flush. However, although Larkin didn't have clubs, he did reveal {K-Spades}{5-Spades} for turned trips, which was more than enough to pick up both the pot and scalp. He is now your new chip leader with 2,150,000.
