Jonathan Tamayo Eliminated In 4th Place ($84,516)
Omaha-8:
Aaron Steury looked to continue bullying his fellow players and raised to 80,000 from the small blind. Jonathan Tamayo made the call and the flop came . Tamayo's last 70,000 chips went into the middle and we were off to a showdown.
Tamayo:
Steury:
Tamayo had flopped top pair but was trailing Steury's two-pair, queens and fives. The chip leader also held an open ended straight draw and Tamayo would need help on the turn or river. The on the turn only improved Steury's hand, giving him queens and sixes and Tamayo was down to his last chance, needing a nine, ten or ace to fall on the river.
River:
With that, Jonathan Tamayo was eliminated in 4th place and he will take home $84,516 for his deep run.
