Mauricio Duarte (Coral Gables, FL) 9th Place - $2,945

Mauricio Duarte (Coral Gables, FL) was one of two super short stacks remaining at the final table, and found himself all-in against both James Plate and Evan Braunstein.  We never had an opportunity to see his hand, as action was checked down each street, and Braunstein rolled over a rivered pair of tens.
