Amit Makhija Eliminated in 20th Place ($73,325)

Amit Makhija-- 20th Place
Amit Makhija-- 20th Place
Denes Kalo opened the pot from early position, Glen Chorny flat-called, Amit Makhija re-raised to 100,000, Kalo folded, Chorny moved all in and Makhija called.

Chorny {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}
Makhija {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}

The flop was {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{4-Clubs}, the turn was the {5-Diamonds}, the river was the {A-Hearts}, and Chorny's queens held, eliminating Makhija, who also happens to be a close friend of his.

After the hand, Johnny Lodden was spotted muttering to some friends on the rail that he had folded 4-4 and would have flopped a full house.
