Isle Poker Classic Event #8 (Day 3): No Time To Get Settled, Hunter Cichy Eliminated In 3rd Place ($24,510)

$1,100 No Limit Hold'em Main Event
$200,000 GTD
Level 25 (Blinds 20,000/40,000/40,000)
Total Event #7 Entries: 244

Hunter Cichy (Coon Rapids, MN) came into Day 3 as the shortest stack, and would find himself eliminated just two hands into the day.

The Day 3 action got off to a very quick start, with Hunter Cichy shoving from the small blind for 615,000.  Jeff Trudeau was in the big blind, and after taking a look at the tournament clock, he eventually found a call:

Cichy: J 9
Trudeau: K♠ 7♣

Runout: Q J 6♣ 5♣ K♣

Cichy was behind when the cards were tabled, but managed to outflow Trudeau, and take a commanding lead in the hand.  The turn only strengthened Hunter's lead in the hand, but Jeff hit a three-outer on the river to steal the pot, and eliminate Cichy in third place ($24,510).

Jeff Trudeau and Elliot Zaydman are now heads up for the Isle Poker Classic title, with the following chip counts:

Jeff Trudeau - 6,300,000
Elliot Zaydman - 1,000,000
