Ben Palmer Eliminated in 20th Place ($44,100)

Dec 9, 2017

From middle position, Ben Palmer opens with a raise and Michael Ruane calls in the big blind.

The flop lands Diamond 10Club 6Diamond 2 and Ruane checks to Palmer who bets 45,000. Ruane responds with a check-raise to roughly 150,000 before Palmer shoves all in for 645,000. Ruane calls, and the cards are tabled.

Ruane: Spade 10Diamond 6
Palmer: Diamond ADiamond 4

Palmer was at-risk with his flush draw, and when the turn landed the Heart 4, he could now hit an ace or four to go along with diamonds.

The river lands the Heart Q, and Palmer is eliminated in 20th place while Ruane moves to 2,290,000 in chips.
