2011-12 World Series of Poker Circuit Event - Caesars Palace

Main Event

Ian Mack Eliminated in 2nd Place ($122,183)

Calenzo open shoved all in on the button, and Mack made the call. The cards were flipped, and Mack was out in front.

Mack: {a-Hearts}{4-Hearts}
Calenzo: {k-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}

Calenzo had live cards going to the flop, and he caught one of them, as it came {k-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}. Mack fell behind, but did pick up a flush draw. The turn came the {9-Diamonds}, and Calenzo needed to dodge an ace or a heart to win the title. The river came the {9-Clubs}, and Mack was eliminated in 2nd place.

It should be noted that Mack was very classy in defeat. He took all of the tough heads up beats with a smile on his face, and he was the first to lead the round of applause for Calenzo. Mack will take hope $122,183 for his efforts.
