William Erickson Eliminated in 8th Place ($53,622)

William Erickson - 8th Place
William Erickson - 8th Place
William Erickson opened all in for 228,000 from early position. Action passed to perpetual tanker Jorg Peisert in the small blind. He didn't tank this time; he snap-called with {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} and saw that he had to fade an ace against Erickson's {A-Clubs} {10-Hearts}. Fade it he did, on a board of {6-Clubs} {8-Spades} {3-Clubs} {k-Clubs} {6-Diamonds}.

Erickson becomes the eighth-place finisher and the first player to be eliminated in four hours -- though to be fair, we were on dinner break for an hour.
