Memorable hand:
The hand that eliminated J.C. Tran in fifth place was the most notable hand of this tourney, as Tran went all in with the better cards -- Ks-Js vs., Lindholt’s Kc-8c – but got wiped out when Lindholt flopped a flush with Ac-5c-2c. The only way Tran could be saved was if the board made a runner-runner straight flush to chop the pot – giving him a one-in-1, 000 shot at winning. No such luck, as the turn was a ten and the river a queen.

Other noteworthy finishers were: Barry Greenstein in 25th place, David ‘Devilfish’ Ulliott in 39th and Chris ‘Jesus’ Ferguson in 64th.
