Richard Lyndaker Eliminated in 9th Place ($67,210)
Mike Leah raised to 350,000 in the hijack and Richard Lyndaker called all in for 115,000 from the cutoff, Jerry Wong called from the big blind. On the flop, Wong moved all in and Leah checked his cards again, then put in calling chips to create a three-way all-in situation.
Richard Lyndaker:
Jerry Wong:
Mike Leah:
Lyndaker had a gutshot but was in dire shape nonetheless against two opponents, while Wong had the nut flush draw against Leah's pair, gutshot, and inferior flush draw. The turn locked up the hand for Wong to ensure the elimination of Lyndaker, and the meaningless fell on the river. Lyndaker was eliminated in 9th place for $67,210 and Wong doubled through Leah for 665,000.
"You had no pair, nothing? I knew I had you beat," Leah joked while paying off Wong.
