On the very next hand, action folded to Brant Hale on the button, and he raised pot to 70,000. Tommy Vedes was next in the small blind, and he put in a tower of orange T5,000 chips that amounted to a raise of 150,000. Mike Allis folded his big blind, and it was back to Hale. Hale said "well I didn't look so you have that going for you" as he slid the remainder of his stack into the middle.

Hale: {j-Spades}{5-Hearts}
Vedes: {a-Spades}{10-Diamonds}

The flop came down {6-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{2-Clubs}, adding an inside straight draw to Hale's outs. The {a-Hearts} on the turn eliminated his pair outs, and Hale would need a three and a three only to survive. The river brought the {8-Diamonds}, and Hale hit the rail, while Vedes jumped back up to 620,000.
