Jan Suchanek Eliminated in 2nd Place ($ 21,060)
Level 17
: 8,000/16,000, 1,500 ante
Limit Hold'em
Left with barely any chips, Jan Suchanek even had to pay the big blind and called all in for another 2,500 behind when James Obst raised from the small blind. The tournament director announced "Jan is all in with seven of diamonds and three of hearts" and Suchanek joked "You don't have to say that loud" to create laughter from the entire rail.
Suchanek: 
Obst: 
The flop 
paired the 10 of Obst and Suchanek was left needing running sevens or threes. The 
turn gave some chop outs, yet the 
river blanked to send Suchanek to the rail in 2nd place and crown Obst as champion just like two years ago when the duo clashed in the 8-Game Event.
