Clements is the latest elimination from Day 8 of the Main Event

We are just eight eliminations away from the November Nine and there are still several big names left in the field that could make this year’s final table exceptionally interesting.  One known pro to fall by the wayside this past hour is Scott Clements though.  The Full Tilt Red Pro recently busted out in 18th place shortly after players redrew for their new seats at the final two tables of the WSOP Main Event:

Michiel Sijpkens Doubles Thru John Racener

Early in Level 32 (Blinds 100,000/200,000 ante 25,000) John Racener raised in early position and Michiel Sijpkens moved all in from the big blind for his last 3 million chips. Racener called with AQ and was racing with Sijpkens’ 44. The flop fell T54 and when the turn brought no help for Racener Sijpkens doubled up to 7 million.

John Dolan Doubles Thru Michiel Sijpkens

Not long after doubling up Sijpkens shipped most of those chip over to John Dolan in a big pot when the got it all in on the river A22JT board. Sijpkens rivered a Broadway straight with KQ, but Dolan had flopped a boat with AA. Dolan doubled to over 7 million and Sijpkens was left with less than 2 million.

Michiel Sijpkens Eliminated in 19th Place ($317,161)

Just a couple hands after doubling Dolan up, Sijpkens open shipped the last of his stack in and Racener called. Racener’s KQ outflopped Sijpkens’ JJ on the Q94 board. The 7 on the turn gave Sijpkens a flush draw and the 2 on the river made it official that Sijpens was the 18th place finisher.
