Aaron Overton (Philadelphia, PA)
$14,092

On the first hand back from dinner break, Aaron Overton is all in for 450k with A 7and is up against Bart Dowling's QQ.

Flop: A♠ 9♠ 9 (Overton leads with pair of aces)
Turn: Q♠ (Dowling hits a full house)
River: 6♣

Overton is drawing dead after the turn and is out in 10th place. "I don't think I could've played any better than I did the last two days," says the 28 year old poker pro. "I had to grind it back twice after losing two big hands."

Overton is disappointed that on the last hand before moving to the final table that he lost 700k to Matt Matros who hit a set of 9s against Overton's pocket 10s. "If I win that hand, I have 1.9 million (chips) at the final table and we're 9 handed."

Overton is a former student at the University of Vermont who's interests include snowboarding.
