Matt Stout Defeats Scott Baumstein
With the board reading 
and facing a 0-1 hole in his match against Matt Stout, Scott Baumstein needed to make a move, and boy did he ever.
Baumstein held the 
and bet out for 1,250, only to see Stout respond with a raise to 3,400. After a lengthy tank to assess the spot he had put himself in, Baumstein decided to make his stand and he shoved all in. Stout snapped him off with the 
for a turned two pair, and when the board brought a brick on the river, he advanced to the Round of 32 to compete against either Joe Tracy or Shankar Pillai.
