Gary Gelman

Action folded to Gary Gelman and he open-shipped for 65,000. Charlemagne Benjamin called next to act and the rest of the table folded.

Benjamin: Ac9h
Gelman: 8s8d

It was a fair fight and Gelman needed his eights to hold to double near the bubble. But Benjamin took the lead when he paired his ace on the AdJc7s flop. The 5c turn and Qh river finished the board and Gelman was eliminated.
