Lee Nelson Eliminated

Team PokerStars Pro Lee Nelson is the latest casualty from today's event. Nelson was short with only around 30,000 chips and decided to move it all in holding {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{6-Spades}

but found himself up against an opponent's {10-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

{10-Spades}

.

The flop seemed good for Nelson at first, but on second glance the {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{10-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

gave his opponent a set and left Nelson with one foot out the door. The turn was the {8-Spades}

{8-Spades}

and river the {8-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

to eliminate one of Australasia's most consistent performers just short of a Day 3 berth.
