Ray Faltinsky Eliminated by Noah Schwartz

Ray Faltinsky just left the tournament room and Jason Mercier was kind enough to explain to us what happend.

A short-stacked Faltinsky was holding J8 against Noah Schwartz’s A8. The board runs out T-9-4-2-Q with three clubs, and Schwartz eliminates Faltinsky, who did make a straight, but it was no good against Schwartz’s flush.
