Mike Rocco was the 2008 WSOP champion in the $1,500 Seven-Card Stud event. He's still alive in tonight's field but he, too, has joined the short stacks. Rocco raised the {5-Clubs} after Jeff Lisandro completed the {10-Spades}, then called all the way down to showdown. Lisandro wound up making a king-high straight by sixth street; Rocco's board of x-x / {5-Clubs} {2-Spades} {q-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} / x didn't produce anything better.

Rocco is down to 45,000. Lisandro is now on 320,000.
