Geoghegan Gambles with Rheem to Elimination

Sylvester Geoghegan Eliminated
Sylvester Geoghegan Eliminated
There has been some friendly banter between tablemates Sylvester Geoghegan and David 'Chino' Rheem for sometime now. Rheem dared Geoghegan to move all in dark on his button, and therefore Rheem's big blind, and Rheem would make the call dark.

Geoghegan got his chance when it was folded to him on the button and he moved all in for his last 8,800. Nam Le folded in disgust as Rheem called and threw the chips into the middle.

Geoghegan: {4-Spades}{9-Hearts}
Rheem: {2-Spades}{2-Hearts}

It was a race of the unusual kind, in which Rheem came out on top when the board ran out {2-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{5-Spades}{6-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}. Geoghegan headed to the rail as Rheem climbed back above the 40,000 mark.
