The Last Minute Entrants

Level 10 : 400/800, 100 ante

Craig Shannon, Alan Widmann, and Barry Shulman were all pre-dinner casualties, but took advantage of the one re-entry option and jumped back in to today's flight.

Andrew Lichtenberger hadn't fired a bullet on either day, but also decided to join the party.

Rauno Tahvonen
Rauno Tahvonen

The final board of {9-Hearts}{2-Spades}{4-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} was exposed with Rauno Tahvonen all in for his final 27,575 holding {2-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}.

He had two opponents in the hand; one which covered him holding {A-Hearts}{6-Hearts}, and another that was all in for 15,575 with {4-Spades}{3-Diamonds}.

Although unsure of when exactly the money went in, Tahvonen was able to fade his opponent's straight and flush draws and more then doubled to roughly 76,000 with his flopped set of deuces.
