Taariq Jaftha Eliminated in 9th Place (ZAR77,600)
Niveau 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Sean Bloom opened the action with a raise to 105,000 with A♦10♠ in an early position and Taariq Jaftha moved all-in for 535,000. Harold Brooks on the button reraised big and Bloom instantly folded.
Taariq Jaftha: 8♠8♣ 
Harold Brooks: Q♥Q♣
The Q♠7♠3♥ flop further improved Brooks to top set and Jaftha needed running spades or eights to stay in contention. It was all over on the A♥ turn to make the 8♦ river bittersweet. Jaftha has become the first casualty of the final table in ninth place for ZAR77,600 ($4,268)
