Wolf Devours Nishijima's Stack

"They're moving fast!"

So said one staff member to another as they criss-crossed between the tables, noting how the bustouts are happening rapidly here during the first few minutes of Day 4. We're racing to that bubble.

Just now Thiago Nishijima was among the early eliminations, falling in a hand to Matthew Wolf. All in with his short stack with {2-Diamonds}{2-Spades} versus Wolf's {A-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}, Nishijima's deuces were okay through the {J-Spades}{4-Hearts}{K-Clubs} flop and {Q-Clubs} turn, but the {10-Diamonds} river gave Wolf a straight, sending Nishijima to the rail early.
