Three Eliminations During Break

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 100 ante

To quote Ron Burgundy, that escalated quickly.

While break was about to begin, there were two all ins and three eliminations, bringing our field to 17 players.

In the first elimination, Peter Brooks was all in and at risk with {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts} on a flop of {6-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{q-Spades}. Unfortunately he was crushed by Robert Lakey's {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}, and the {a-Spades} on the turn ended the hand.

Over on Table 33, there was a three-way all in preflop between Frank Wyville, Pete Weber, and Thomas Morse.

Wyville: {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}
Weber: {k-Clubs}{j-Hearts}
Morse: {a-}{q-}

The board ran out {9-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{5-Spades}{3-Hearts}, and Wyville scored the double knockout.
