There are about 13 minutes left in Level 24, with blinds at 60,000-120,000 and a 15,000 ante.
Hand #61 – Cory Carroll has the button in seat 7, and Amir Vahedi raises under the gun to 810,000, winning the blinds and antes. Vahedi shows 8-8 as he collects the pot.
Hand #62 – Jeff King has the button in seat 10, Gus Hansen min-raises under the gun to 240,000, and Amir Vahedi calls from the big blind. The flop comes [AsQh4h], Vahedi checks, Hansen bets 240,000, and Vahedi calls. The turn card is the [3h], Vahedi moves all in for 480,000, and Hansen calls with [Ac7d] for a pair of aces. Vahedi shows [Qd8d] for a pair of queens, and he’ll need to improve to stay alive.
The river card is the [7h], and Gus Hansen wins the pot with two pair, aces and sevens.
Amir Vahedi is eliminated in seventh place, earning $237,435.
