Warne Out

Leigh Warne Out
Leigh Warne Out
Not Shane, but Leigh Warne has just been eliminated from the tournament in 24th place. Warne moved all in preflop from middle position for 32,000 and was called by Geoff Channing in the small blind.

At the showdown, Warne turned over {A-Diamonds} {5-Spades} and was dominated by Channing's {A-Hearts} {K-Spades}. The {8-Diamonds} {J-Spades} {9-Clubs} {6-Spades} {3-Clubs} board brought no help to Warne, who will take home $675 in prize money for his efforts.

Meanwhile, Channing stacked up ~81,000 in chips with the win.
