Ferguson Wheels One Out

Lots of pre-flop action at Chris Ferguson's table resulted in an increase in Ferguson's count to 13,000 and the elimination of a player.

One player opened to 700, with Ferguson calling behind him. The small blind then raised pot, to a total of 3,000. It brought the action back to the original aggressor, who moved all in for 1,700 total. Ferguson then potted himself, putting the small blind all in with a call. Finally, a reveal.

Player 1: {a-Hearts} {q-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} {2-Hearts}
Ferguson: {a-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} {q-Hearts} {4-Diamonds}
Player 2: {a-Spades} {a-Clubs} {j-Spades} {8-Hearts}

Ferguson and the original raiser had very similar hands and were up against single-suited aces. The aces went down in flames -- and that player was eliminated -- when the board came {j-Diamonds} {3-Clubs} {7-Spades} {4-Spades} {5-Diamonds} to give Ferguson and his short-stacked opponent a wheel.
