Casey Kastle Eliminated in 8th Place (AUD $10,000)

[user135779]

Level 11 : 1,200/2,400, 0 ante

Casey Kastle may not have let a sore finger stand in his way of playing this final table today, but William Thorson has just crushed his soul in ninth place after a big set-over-set scenario.

Kastle raised to 5,500 from UTG +1 and Thorson reraised to 17,000 from next door. The action folded back around to Kastle who called before the dealer spread the flop of {k-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} {A-Hearts} .

Kastle check-raised all-in after Thorson opened for 17,000 and Thorson snap-called.

Thorson: {A-Diamonds} {A-Clubs} {7-Clubs} {6-Hearts}
Kastle: {K-Diamonds} {K-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} {J-Hearts}

(See, we told you it was a big set-over-set scenario!)

Neither the turn of the {4-Diamonds} or the river {2-Spades} changed the outcome and Kastle is now off to collect AUD $10,000 from the cage, which is handy, because at least we know he can cover his medical bills. Thorson is now way out in front, holding more than 327,000 in chips.
