Hands #65-66: Shon Mekyten Bubbles in 7th Place ($47,318)

Hand #65  –  Lee Markholt raises from early position to 90,000, winning the blinds and antes.

Hand #66  –  Brian Senie raises from the button to 80,000, Shon Mekyten calls from the small blind, and Noah Schwartz calls from the big blind.

The flop comes [Ac2c2d], Mekyten checks, Schwartz bets 100,000, Senie folds, and Mekyten calls.

The turn card is the [10c], Mekyten checks, Schwartz bets 215,000, and Mekyten check-raises all in for 935,000. Schwartz calls.

Mekyten shows [Ad10h] for top two pair, aces and tens, but Schwartz turns over [Kc6c] for a club flush. Mekyten will need an ace, a ten, or a deuce to stay alive.

The river card is the [5c], and Noah Schwartz wins the pot with his club flush to eliminate Shon Mekyten in seventh place.
