Ivan Tan Eliminated

Patrick Carron is on a rush after just eliminating two opponents in consecutive hands, including 2007 APPT Macau runner up Ivan Tan.

In the first hand Alec Milam moved his short stack all in from under the gun and Carron re-shoved next to act. The table folded around and Carron's {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

{J-Hearts}

were in great shape against Milam's {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{J-Diamonds}

. The board bricked out {3-Spades}

{3-Spades}

{9-Hearts}

{Q-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

{6-Diamonds}

to send Milam to the exit.

A few moments later Ivan Tan had his last chips in the middle with {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{K-Spades}

as Carron woke up with {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Hearts}

.

Tan was calling for an ace or a king and was thrilled to see the flop fall {3-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

{2-Hearts}

to give him the lead. The turn was the {2-Clubs}

{2-Clubs}

but the river brought Carron a two-outer with the {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

.

"Flush!" exclaimed Tan pointing to his {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

however Carron had made a full house to take the pot and eliminate Tan from the event. Carron is now up to 61,000 chips.
