| David Novak (Philadelphia, PA) - 7th Place ($14,796) |
Players returned from dinner about (15) minutes ago, and it didn't take long for the chips to start flying. In a five-bet pot pre-flop, David Novak and Travis Greenwalt got it all-in, with Greenwalt the final aggressor. The two were almost even in chips, so the hand would determine both of the players tournament future:
Novak: A♣ K♦
Greenwalt: A♠ Q♥
Flop: 2♥ Q♠ 8♦
Turn: 9♠
River: 9♣
Novak stood up after the flop, seemingly shocked in what he was witnessing. The lead he held just seconds ago was washed away on the flop, and he'd be left hoping for a three-outer to grab back the lead. The turn and river brought a nine on each street, and all that was left was for the dealer to count down the two stacks. Travis would have David covered by a few thousand chips, meaning Novak would be the first to depart after dinner, finishing in seventh place ($14,796).
The cash was the second largest of David's career, which includes a resume with a few deep runs in Big Stax events. He also has a trophy win from Borgata last year, when he won a $600 + 60 No Limit Hold'em Deep Stack event during the Spring Poker Open ($41,064).
