Michael Graffeo raised from middle position to 60,000, Valerie Novak moved all in from the cutoff for about 100,000, and Graffeo called with JsJh.

Novak turned over Ac2c, and needed to improve to stay alive.

The board came QdJc7h2h8s, and Graffeo won the pot with a flopped set of jacks to eliminate Novak in ninth place.
