Sameer Aliamedi was the severe short stack coming into the final table, but he was able to ladder up one spot before busting in 9th place. He shoved all in preflop holding [Ad][7s], but once again the short stack was dominated, as Behtaj Amiri looked him up with [Ah][10c]. The hand was all but over when the flop came [Kc][10h][5d], and the board completed [2s] and [7d], giving Amiri the knockout.
Just like that, we are down to eight players! All of them have earned at least $6,175 tonight!
