Lee Nelson Eliminated

A short-stacked Lee Nelson moved all in for 1,100 from his big blind. Nelson got three callers and was looking to quadruple up. The flop came:

{10-Spades}

{10-Spades}

{4-Spades}

{2-Hearts}

Action was checked to Jimmy Cha who bet 1,200 into the dry side pot. The under-the-gun player called and it was heads-up on the side. The turn brought the {3-Spades}

{3-Spades}

. The under-the-gun player checked to Cha who bet 5,500. His opponent passed and Cha won the side pot. With action complete, the players showed:

Cha: {3-Diamonds}

{3-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

Nelson:

{A-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

Nelson needed a five on the river if he were to stay alive. The dealer laid down the {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

on the river, however, and Nelson was yet another Day 1 casualty. Jimmy Cha increased his stack to 45,000.
