Hoyt 'The Alabama Cowboy' Corkins was eliminated from the tournament in 7th place by Richard Gryko. Here's how the hand went down: (Hold'em) Gryko opened with a raise to 13,500 from early position and action folded around the table to Corkins in the big blind who made the call, leaving himself just 4,500 behind. The flop came A-3-5 and Corkins painfully checked to Gryko who tossed a handful of red (500) chips into the middle -- a bet worth 4,000. Corkins then threw the rest of his chips in, raising Gryko a single red chip, and Gryko made the call, tabling KJ; Corkins' J-6 was dominated. The J fell on the turn giving Corkins a few outs for a chopped pot, but the 10 came on the river, cementing the pot for Gryko
