    Jean-Simon Turcotte was the next player to leave the final table in a dramatic three-way all in. John Yang Huynh was the first to move all in before the flop, followed by James Belanger, immediately to his left, and finally Turcotte.

    Yang Huynh: Queen of Diamonds Queen of Clubs

    Belanger: Queen of Hearts Queen of Spades

    Turcotte: Jack of Clubs Jack of Hearts

    Board: 6 of Clubs Ace of Clubs 7 of Clubs 8 of Hearts 2 of Spades

    Yang Huynh’s flush draw on the turn gave Belanger a sweat, but the queens ultimately chopped and Turcotte hit the rail in ninth place. Turcotte took home $990.00 for his efforts.

    Shijaudin Daud Sha, widely known as Lee, was eliminated in eighth place. Down to a short stack after losing a couple of pots on the final table, he patiently waited for his spot. That spot finally came when he woke up with 7 of Hearts 7 of Spades on the button, and he called off his stack after the chip leader, Daniel Pepin, had made an opening bet. Pepin tabled Ace of Diamonds 10 of Diamonds; it was a race. Pepin took the lead on the flop of 2 of Diamonds 10 of Clubs 9 of Clubs, and Lee could not catch up with the 4 of Hearts turn and 2 of Clubs river. The eighth place finished earned him $1,270.00

    Vera G followed not long after Daud Sha when she moved all in from early position with Ace of Clubs 5 of Clubs. After John Yang Huynh re-raised all in, she knew she was in trouble. Yang Huynh tabled Ace of Spades Queen of Clubs and Vera rose from her seat. The board, Jack of Clubs 6 of Spades 9 of Clubs King of Diamonds King of Hearts, did not affect either hand and the queen kicker was enough. Vera G took home $1,610.00 for her seventh place finish.
