Lun Loon was eliminated in ninth place at the final table after he jammed his pocket jacks in the small blind. Nacho Barbero called from the big blind with ace-four suited and flopped trip aces to take Loon out.
Ana Marquez picked up her first Triton cash in eighth place. Barbero raised the button, Matthias Eibinger jammed with king-queen offsuit in the small blind, and Marquez jammed her short stack with an ace-queen offsuit. A king-high board gave the pot to Eibinger.
Jeffrey "Boski" Sluzinski was eliminated in seventh place. He shoved his king-jack offsuit in the cutoff and was dominated by Barbero's ace-jack offsuit. Neither player improved their hand, and Barbero's ace-high took down the pot.
