Michael Carroll Eliminated in 27th Place ($257,334)

Michael Carroll - 27th Place
Michael Carroll - 27th Place
On a flop of {A-Diamonds} {5-Spades} {4-Spades}, Gert Andersen checked, Michael Carroll moved all in for 735,000, and Joe Bishop made the call, only to have Andersen move all in over the top. Bishop stood up, took a tilty walk away from the stage and smacked his hands together before folding and taking a seat on a chair near the tournament clock. And the cards are turned up...

Carroll {A-Hearts} {9-Hearts}

Andersen {4-Hearts} {4-Diamonds}

Andersen had flopped a set of fours, leaving Carroll's top pair in bad shape. The turn was the {J-Spades}, the river was the {10-Clubs} and Carroll was eliminated in 27th place. He'll take home $247,334 for his Main Event run.
