Jared Hamby Eliminated in 24th Place ($19,731)
Whenever you encounter pocket aces and pocket kings all in against each other before the flop you're going to end up feeling really sorry for one of the two players by the end of it. It's an unavoidable situation for both, and this time Jared Hamby was on the wrong side of things.
It started with Griffin Benger who raised to 12,000 and he was three-bet by Matt Jarvis from the button to 35,000. Hamby was next to act and he four-bet to 72,000 which got Benger to quickly fold.
Jarvis went into the tank a little longer this time before making it 118,000 to go. Hamby responded with an all-in shove for around 310,000 and the former November Niner called right away.
"Aces?" Hamby asked Jarvis in the split second before the cards were turned over.
Jarivs nodded and Hamby's face turned very sour.
Hamby: 
Jarvis: 
The board ran out 
and Hamby was knocked out.
