Aaron Massey moved all in from the hijack for 125,000, and Brian Altman tanked for a while in the big blind before he called with Ac5d.

Massey turned over Kh9h, and he needed to improve to stay alive.

The board came Qd10c3hJdKc — Massey turned a king-high straight, but Altman rivered an ace-high straight to win the pot and eliminate Massey in ninth place.

Brian Altman  –  900,000  (60 bb)
Aaron Massey  –  Eliminated in 9th Place  ($4,865)

With eight players remaining, the average stack is about 550,000 (37 big blinds), and the next player to bust will earn $6,120.
