Former November Niner Eliminates Ausmus

Matt Giannetti, who if you recall finish fourth in last year's Main Event, opened for 35,000 from early position and cleared the field all the way to Jeremy Ausmus in the big blind. A call was made, the flop fell {J-Hearts}{K-Spades}{Q-Hearts}, and Ausmus proceeded to check-raise all in for 175,000 after Giannetti had bet 46,000. The former November Niner made the call and showed the nuts.

Showdown
Giannetti: {A-Spades}{10-Spades}
Ausmus: {10-Hearts}{6-Hearts}

Despite running into the nuts, Ausmus held a flush draw and could still chop with an ace. Unfortunately for him, both the turn and river would blank and he was eliminated from the tournament.
