Hougaard Eliminated by Ressler

Thee players paid 7,000 each to see a flop of {5-Spades}{4-Clubs}{9-Spades}. We're not sure how the action went at this point, but we do know that Jesper Hougaard got all his money in with {6-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} and was up against the {K-Spades}{8-Hearts}{8-Spades}{A-Hearts} of Joseph Ressler.

Hougaard was ahead with his pair of nines and open-ended straight draw, but Ressler had outs to a spade and an eight. The {6-Diamonds} turn didn't change much, but the {2-Spades} river gave Hougaard his straight. Unfortunately for him, it also gave Ressler the flush. Hougaard was eliminated on the hand.
