Kevin Eyster Eliminated By Sam Goldman

Level 4: 300-600, 75 ante

We arrived in the midst of the raises, but in time to see WPT Seminole Hard Rock Showdown champion Kevin Eyster all in for 35,600 from the cutoff. Sam Goldman called from the big blind and action was on Erick Lindgren in the hijack, with 7,500 in front of him committed to the pot. After a little while in the tank, Lindgren folded.
