McLean Karr Eliminated in 8th Place ($67,596)

Level 23 : 12,000/24,000, 0 ante
McLean Karr - 8th place
McLean Karr - 8th place

Action folded to McLean Karr on the button and he raised to 75,000. Sam Stein, in the big blind, re-raised the pot. Karr put the the rest of his stack, roughly 350,000, into the middle and Stein called.

Karr: {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}
Stein: {4-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}

"I race well!" said an excited Karr. Stein chuckled, hoping that would not be the case this time.

The flop came down {J-Spades}{9-Clubs}{6-Spades} and put Karr ahead with top pair. The {7-Clubs} turn kept him there, but the river delivered a cruel {4-Clubs} to give Stein a set, ending Karr's tournament in 8th place.

Stein, meanwhile, upped his stack to about 1,500,000.
