We missed the action but John Martin has been eliminated by Grant Hinkle. All the chips went in preflop when Martin shoved on the button and Hinkle called from the big blind.
Martin - AxKx
Hinkle - KxQx
Hinkle flopped a queen, leaving Martin needing an ace that never came. For his performance, Martin receives $1,243.
Another player has been eliminated to get us down to the final table redraw. That post is up next, followed by final table seating arrangements and chip counts.
