Sitting on a short stack of 190K, Al Cancari had little choice but to move all his chips in the middle with any two decent cards. He picked up a marginal hand, and was called by both Raymond Kay and Jean-Francois Lescadres.

The two active players checked it down until the river, and on a board showing 4 of Diamonds Jack of Hearts 2 of Diamonds 3 of Clubs 6 of Diamonds, Jean-Francois wagered 500K. After a moment in the tank, Raymond made the call, and all three players tabled their hands.

Jean-Francois: King of Diamonds 7 of Diamonds

Raymond: Jack of Clubs 2 of Spades

Al: Ace of Diamonds Jack of Spades

Jean-Francois’s flush was the winning hand, eliminating Al in 15th place.

15th place: Al Cancari – $2,960
