Virani Takes Ferguson Out

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

The flop read {10-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{8-Clubs} and Chris Ferguson shoved from the big blind for around 120,000. Mohsin Virani, in late position, snap-called.

Chris Ferguson: {A-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Mohsin Virani: {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs}

Ferguson had flopped top pair with the ace-kicker but Virani was ahead with the overpair.

The rest of the board was completed with the {k-Hearts} on the turn and the {2-Hearts} on the river to eliminate Ferguson from the tournament.
