Hwang Crippled, Then Eliminated

We caught the tail end of an interesting hand that left Andy Hwang with just 6,500 in chips. He was eliminated on the next hand.

In the first hand, Hwang was heads up with Raymond Dandrea on a board that had completed . There was about 45,000 in the middle, and Dandrea had put out a bet of 10,500. Hwang tanked for about 30 seconds while we were there, before eventually making the call. Dandrea tabled for just ace high, and Hwang sat up in his chair to see the hand. Then, his shoulders sunk, as he checked his cards one more time, before sending them to the dealer.

On the next hand, Ting Ho raised to 4,500 in early position, and a middle position player moved all in for his last 20,300. Hwang committed the rest of his chips out of the small blind, and when it got back around to Ho, she made the call to put both at risk.
