Hong Pham Eliminated in 9th Place (�24,750)
Level 36
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Hong Pham open-jammed as first to act, putting her stack of 4,250,000 at risk. Vito Branciforte called in the big blind before the rest of the table mucked their cards.
Hong Pham: A?Q? 
Vito Branciforte: A?A?
The 4?8?5? flop was of no help to Pham, but the Q? turn provided her a glimmer of hope. Ultimately, though, Branciforte's aces held as the 6? arrived on the river.
Pham was the first to depart from the final table, pocketing �24,750 for her ninth place.
