Adam Johnson (Norwood, MA)

Adam Johnson came into this Final Table as one of the shorter stacked players and couldn't survive the first orbit as just a few hands into play he moved all-in from under the gun for his remaining 200,000.

The table would fold around to the chip leader Peter Tripp who would re-rasise the bet to isolate the short stack, but he didn't have to, as the rest of the field seemed completely uninterested in calling any bet.

Tripp would table [Kh][Ks] and Johnson would need a lot of help as he held [Kc][6s].

He'd get no help as the board ran out clean for the pocket Kings and Tripp would notch a quick elimination at this Final Table.

This deep Event 7 run would be Johnson's second Foxwoods Final Table in as many months as he finished as the runner up in the New Year's Day Special event for the biggest cash of his career, earning just over $9,000 for that finish.

He'd earn less this time around, making just over $2,000, ending the last of the "grouped" payouts, as the Final Table is now guaranteed a pay jump after every elimination.
