Vince Cardella Eliminated in 9th Place ($15,935)
Level 26
: 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Vince Cardella had been grinding the short stack since we can remember. He just doubled up holding pocket sevens against Tsung Lu's . Then two hands later Cardella entered the last hand he would play in.
Leroy Spires opened from under the gun for 70,000, Brandon Crawford called from the cutoff and Cardella moved all in from the small blind. To everyone's surprise Tong Le announced that he was all in from the big blind. Spires and Crawford got out of the way and they went to a showdown.
Cardella:
Le:
The board ran Le's aces and kings sent Cardella to the rail.
