Brandon Novena Eliminated in 30th Place ($19,344)

Oct 18, 2010

Brandon Novena raises preflop and Annette Obrestad defends in position.

The flop falls K-Q-8 rainbow and both players check.  The turn brings an ace and Novena shoves all-in.  Obrestad snap-calls and shows [JdTd] for a Broadway straight, aka the nuts.

Novena turns over [Qh8h] for a flopped two pair and fails to improve when the river brings a ten.  Obrestad takes the pot and Novena is eliminated.

Annette Obrestad – 930,000 (116 big blinds)
Brandon Novena – eliminated in 30th place ($19,344)
