Joel Tushnet Eliminated in 22nd Place ($14,340)

Sep 2, 2013

Garrett Greer raises under the gun, Ludovic Assouline calls from the small blind, and Joel Tushnet calls from the big blind.

The flop comes [Kh5h2h], Assouline bets, and Tushnet moves all in. Greer folds, and Assouline calls.

Tushnet shows [Kc9h] for a pair of kings with a nine-high flush draw, but Assouline turns over [Qh10h] for a queen-high flush. Tushnet needs something runner-runner to survive.

The turn card pairs the board with the [5s], giving Tushnet some outs, but the river is the [Qc] and Assouline wins the pot. Tushnet is out in 22nd place.

Ludovic Assouline  –  1,895,000  (118 bb)
Joel Tushnet  –  Out in 22nd Place  ($14,340)
