Hand #8: Chau Vu Eliminated in 6th Place ($135,000)

Steve Brecher has the button in seat 3.

Chau Vu moves all in under the gun for 202,000, and Tony Behari calls from the small blind with [8c8h]. Chau shows [As8d], and he’ll need to improve to stay alive.

The flop comes [KsJd10c], and Chau picks up a gutshot straight draw for additional outs. The turn card is the [9d], and Chau needs an ace or a queen to stay alive.

The river card is the [3c], and Tony Behari wins the pot with his pocket eights.

Chau Vu is eliminated in sixth place, earning $135,000.
