Saderne Flipped Out by Lijo

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Jeremy Saderne was spotted on his way out of the tournament area and his cards were already in the muck. "He was very short and had ace-queen," Pablo Navarro and another player at the table confirmed.

The chips went to Lander Lijo, who held {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} and they held on a {9-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{3-Spades}{7-Hearts}{7-Clubs} runout.

Also featured on the table is Timo Kamphues, who appears to be among the current chip leaders. The German explained that he had eliminated Fedor Holz earlier on, then won a race with queens versus ace-king before "grabbing further chips here and there".
