Walden Flops Broadway, Rezaei Rivers a Boat
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Jamie Walden bought into Day 2 right before it kicked off, but didn't last long in the tournament as Daniel Rezaei cut it short.
The chips were in the middle preflop, with Walden's stack of around 22,000 at risk from under the gun, with Rezaei in the hijack.
Jamie Walden: K♠Q♠
Daniel Rezaei: 10♠10♥
You have to win flips to win tournaments, and it looked to be going Walden's way as he flopped Broadway on A♠J♥10♦. Rezaei had outs to a full house, but the 8♥ turn didn't improve his set.
What did improve his set was the board-pairing 8♠, which boated up Rezaei and sent Walden on his way.
