Fred Walker Eliminated in 16th Place ($2,438)

Level 20
: 8,000/16,000, 3,000 ante

A mistake may have just cost Fred Walker his tournament life.
The hand began innocently enough with James Hall opening for 35,000. Walker then three-bet all in for 110,000, but the problem was he acted out of turn. Mike Lang still needed to act, and as he told us after the hand, he had planned to move all in. Instead, he just called, which meant Walker's raise stood. Hall ended up folding, and then Lang snap-called.

The flop didn't help Walker, but the
turn did give him a flush draw. Unfortunately for him, it didn't come in as the
blanked on the river. Walker will take home $2,438 for his 16th-place finish.
