Roller Coaster Exit for Beckley

Level 10 : 400/800, 0 ante

Joshua Beckley escaped from elimination and essentially doubled through, chopping with a low against Jason Phamolivo on a board of {Q-Spades}{8-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{3-Spades}{A-Diamonds} after he tabled {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}. Phamolivo won the high pot with {A-Spades}{J-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{5-Spades} while the third player in the hand mucked.

Beckley then got into a hand with Corey Hochman and called bets on the {Q-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} flop and the {Q-Clubs} turn. The {8-Spades} came on the river and Hochman fired again. Beckley tank-folded and was shown the {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{X-}.

One hand later, Hochman raised and his table neighbor three-bet, Hochman called. On the {A-Spades}{10-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} flop, Hochman checked and called a bet before check-raising the {J-Hearts} turn, which resulted in a call. The {9-Clubs} river completed the board and Hochman's final bet was reluctantly called to see him turn over {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} for the nut straight.

Beckley's remaining two preflop bets vanished the next hand as he left the tournament area in the final level of the night.
