Joe McKeehen Eliminated

FRITTZ007 limped from UTG+1 for 50,000, LarryDavid23 limped from the button, and Joe McKeehen (chadsafishluck) checked his option in the big blind.

The flop came Spade QClub 9Spade 7, and it checked to LarryDavid23, who bet the pot — 218,750. McKeehen check-raised to 637,775, and FRITTZ007 folded.

LarryDavid23 three-bet all in for 2,017,000, and McKeehen called all in for 1,936,000 with Diamond QHeart 7 for two pair, queens and sevens. LarryDavid23 turned over Spade 9Diamond 9 for a set of nines, and McKeehen needed to improve to stay alive.

The turn card was the Spade 3, the river card was the Diamond 4, and the set of nines held up for LarryDavid23 to win the pot and eliminate McKeehen shortly before registration closes.
