Vogelsong Busts Carson

Sorrel Mizzi opened to 2,000 from under the gun, Greg Vogelsong called on his direct left, Daniel Negreanu called in middle position, and Russell Carson three-bet to 6,700 from the small blind. Only Vogelsong called.

Both players checked the {6-Spades}{10-Hearts}{7-Hearts} flop, and after the {4-Spades} turned, Carson led for 9,200. Vogelsong instantly put him all in, and Carson quickly called.

Carson: {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Vogelsong: {5-Diamonds}{5-Spades}

Carson was well ahead, but the {3-Diamonds} spiked on the river, giving Vogelsong a straight, and eliminating Carson from the tournament. He b-lined for the exit, looking none too happy, while Vogelsong pulled in a pot to push his stack over 180,000 chips.
