Isaac Baron Eliminated in 85th Place ($73,805)

Isaac Baron has three-bet Tristan Clemencon from 80,000 to 175,000 to win some chips and then took the blinds and antes on the next hand. On the third hand in a row, things went completely the other way as he ran into Amnon Filippi.

Action folded to Baron in middle position and he raised to 80,000. On the button, Filippi took a break from playing his iPad game and reraised to 225,000. The blinds folded and Baron moved all in for around 1.75 million. Filippi quickly called with the {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}. Baron held the {A-Hearts}{K-Spades}.

"It's an unfortunate situation," said Baron as he waited for the board to come out.

The flop came down {Q-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{4-Spades} and Baron whiffed so far. Filippi was still in front and looked very calm about things with two more cards to come.

The turn was the {7-Spades} and now Filippi only needed to dodge an ace on the river to bust Baron.

The dealer burned one last time and then dealt the {2-Diamonds} on the river. Baron had missed and all of his chips were sent over to Filippi, who moved to approximately 4.6 million in chips.
