Edward Gilfillan raised to 40,000 from middle position and Dee Richardson moved all in for 105,000 from the button. Gilfillan called the cards were exposed.
Richardson tabled Q10 and was in need of some help against Gilfillan’s AJ. The flop gave both players a pair and a straight draw as it came AK10. Gilfillan’s pair was bigger though and it held up as the turn was the K and the river was the 6.
Richardson was eliminated in eighth place and takes home $7,500 for his efforts. His departure leaves us one elimination away from the end of the day.
