Nivel 22
: 10,000/20,000, 0 ante
Ali Eslami entered the pot with a raise to 45,000 from under the gun only to have Ted Lawson move all in from the button for 165,000. Eslami made the call.

With Lawson in a race for his tournament survival, the flop gave him no additional outs before the dealer dropped the on the turn.
Now needing one of six cards in the deck to remain in Event #15, the on the river wouldn't be one of those as he was forced to wave goodbye to the tournament in eighth place as Eslami moves to 680,000 in chips.
