John Armbrust Eliminated in 5th Place ($32,840)

Level 32
: Limits 150,000/300,000, 0 ante

Vadim Shlez raised with K?J? in the cutoff and action folded around to John Armbrust who three-bet from the big blind with A?J?. Shlez called to see a flop of K?K?8?.
Armbrust opted to bet and Shlez called to see the J? turn card. Armbrust bet the last of his chips as Shlez quickly tossed in a call with Armbrust drawing dead headed to the river.
The hands were turned up and the dealer put the inconsequential 9? out on the river to make it official as what began as an accidental registration in the wrong event ends with a 5th place finish for $32,840.
