David “ODB” Baker Eliminated in 8th Place ($13,917)
Level 30
: Limits 100,000/200,000, 0 ante
WSOP bracelet winner David “ODB” Baker fought an uphill battle at the final table as a short stack, and he ultimately found himself in an all-in situation when he was in the big blind.
John Armbrust, who earlier doubled up Baker, raised in the small blind with Q?8?. Baker looked down at J?3? and made the call.
The flop brought A?6?7?, which Armbrust bet. Baker called off the rest of his chips, putting his tournament at stake.
The 5? on the turn and 8? on the river sent Baker to the rail in eighth place for $13,917.
