Up front on Table 9, three players got all their chips in the middle:

Sirous Jamshidi had the biggest stack and biggest pair, {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}. Anthony Maggio had {k-Spades}{k-Clubs} and Lloyd Bruer had the shortest stack and {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}, at risk for his tournament life.

The board ran clean, {8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{5-Spades}{7-Spades} until Maggio said "King!" and the {k-Diamonds} appeared like magic on the river. After dragging both main and side pots, he chipped up to 180,000. Jamshidi was down to only 15,000 (19 big blinds). Bruer was busted and headed for the door. He still has the option to re-enter this flight or Flight F at 6pm tonight.
