Joshua Norris Eliminated

Action folded around to Chris Zapf in the small blind and he moved all in for just under 200,000. His big blind opponent, Joshua Norris, had fewer chips and called all in. The players showed:

Zapf: {Q-Clubs} {2-Clubs}
Norris: {A-Diamonds} {8-Clubs}

Norris had a slight mathematical lead in the hand but it quickly evaporated when the flop came {K-Spades} {Q-Spades} {2-Spades}. The turn fell the {7-Hearts} with the river {9-Diamonds} behind it. Zapf's two pair was best and Norris headed for the payout table. Zapf stacked up to just shy of 300,000 on the hand.
