Tommy Vinas' Two-Pair Taken Down On River

With the board showing {8-Clubs}{4-Spades}{J-Clubs}{A-Hearts} after the turn, Tommy Vinas shipped his last 50,000 or so chips into the middle. Richard Harwood decided to make the call and showed down {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades} for top pair, top kicker.

Vinas was in good shape with his {J-Spades}{8-Hearts} for a flopped two-pair and the river card would determine if he survived this all-in confrontation.

River: {A-Clubs}

Harwood found one of his outs and made trip aces to eliminate Vinas. Harwood now sits with over 300,000 chips and is becoming a force late in Day 2.
