Ari Prostak

The damn broke after the dinner break with some short stacks returning. On one of the first hands back, there was a three-way all-in between Ari Prostak, Amie Martini, and David Coolman.

Prostak: TsTc
Coolman: AhQh
Martini: 9d8d

Prostack had a lot to dodge and Martini caught a piece of the KsJs8c flop while Coolman had added a small gutshot draw. The 4h turn was a blank and the Kc river completed a double KO for Prostak.

Coolman earned 18th place money because of the bigger stack and Table 44 was broken.

Ari Prostak – 622,000 (26 bb)
David Coolman – Eliminated in 18th place ($2,172)
