Chris Ferguson Has Been Eliminated

[user37786]

Omaha-8:

After Chris Ferguson raised to 5,000 he had just 400 chips behind. Steve Sung called blind, and bet 400 blind after the flop came {A-?}

. Ferguson called and might've had hopes that his {A-?}

was ahead...until Sung rolled over {A-?}

for the flopped full house. And with that Ferguson's day came to an end.

[user37786]

The runner-up in last year's $50,000 H.O.R.S.E. event, Bruno Fitoussi was not able to replicate his run and has been eliminated. He was extremely short after losing a hand to Patrick Bueno and went out in a razz hand where he couldn't beat Hasan Habib's jack low.
