Daniel Laming Eliminated in 8th ($1,500)

"I never win these," grimaced Dean Aldred negatively as his Ad-Jd came up against 5s-4d. Perhaps his cynicism was a result of his opponent, Paul Pham and his gargantuan stack seemingly instilling fear in the very being of anyone who steps in his way. Aldred rose from his chair, perhaps in anticipation of a bad beat, and although the turn of a Kd-3h-Qh-5s board had him shaking his head, the mysterious-ways of the Poker Gods came into play on the Jh river to deliver him a much-needed doubled up. "Yes!" exclaimed Aldred as he brought his hands together.


But Aldren wasn't prepared to rest on his laurels and spend the next orbit stacking chips, as within just a few seconds he was back in the thick of it, calling the all-in of Daniel Laming with 7c-7d. Laming had Ad-3d, and with both players holding their breath, the board ran out Kd-3h-Qh-5s-Jh to send Laming home.
