Mike Jozoff limped under the gun for 20,000, leaving himself a single 5K chip. Aaron Massey completed the small blind, and Jeff Farnes checked his option in the big blind.

The flop came 9c8h3h, Massey checked, and Farnes bet 35,000. Jozoff called all in for 5,000, and Massey folded.

Jozoff turned over Ad3c for a pair of threes, but he needed to improve to stay alive against the 10s9d (pair of nines) of Farnes.

The turn card was the 6c, the river card was the 5c, and Farnes wins the pot with his pair of nines to eliminate Jozoff in eighth place.
