Two Strikes and Meyers is Out

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

Brandon "oncommand" Meyers busted in the first level, but he exercised his option to reenter. It paid dividends early as he quickly chipped up to as high as 75,000, but it all recently came crashing down. We missed the hand that crippled Meyers ("I basically got two outed," he told us), but we were there for his final hand.

Meyers managed to get his extreme short stack all in preflop and found himself in dire straits against Steve Buell.

Meyers: {2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}
Buell: {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

Meyers was up out of his seat and exiting the tournament floor even before the board ran out {a-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}. Meyers can't reenter any longer on Day 1a, but he can try again tomorrow on Day 1b.
