Aaron Massey raised to 7,000 and Patrick Eskandar, who started off Day 2 with a double through Brian Hastings, called from middle position. Raffaello Locatelli was in the small blind and came along. The trio saw a flop of 9d6s6d. Locatelli checked and Massey bet 12,000. Eskandar called while Locatellit got out of the way.

Massey and Eskandar were heads up to the 2d turn. Massey cut down his stack revealing 40,100 chips. He promptly announced “Forty thousand five hundred,” leaving himself a lone 500 chip behind. Eskandar called.

The dealer burned and Massey casually plopped his final 500 in the pot before the 6h was turned. Eskandar called.

“Let’s go,” Massey said flipping over 8s8d for sixes-full. Eskandar turned over Th9h for a better fullhouse and took the pot. Massey was eliminated in 9th place good for a score of $3,024.

Patrick Eskandar – 286,000 (95 bb)
