Herald Barber Eliminated in 8th Place ($3,045)

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Herald Barber - 8th Place
Herald Barber - 8th Place

Herald Barber moved all in for 150,000 on the button, and Bob Horan quickly called in the big blind.

Barber: {a-Hearts}{8-Hearts}
Horan: {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}

Horan was a discernable favorite to win the hand, but the odds evened out when the dealer fanned {6-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}, giving Barber a flush draw and a backdoor straight draw. The turn was the {8-Clubs}, giving Barber two outs to make trips, but the {7-Diamonds} bricked off on the river.

He is eliminated in eighth place, and Horan is up to 700,000 chips.
