Andy Black raised to 10,000 under the gun and Neil O'Reilly shoved for about 50,000 from the button. After getting a count from the dealer, Black made the call to put O'Reilly at risk.

Neil O'Reilly: JJ All in

Niall Farrell
Niall Farrell

Niall Farrell and Espen Myrmo just got all of their chips into the middle preflop in a blind-on-blind confrontation.

Espen Myrmo: QQ All in
Niall Farrell: 1010

Farrell started the hand with slightly more chips than Myrmo, and whoever won the hand would become one of the biggest stacks in the room.

The board ran out incredibly unfavorably for Myrmo as it came 6AK72 to give Farrell a flush on the river, cracking the queens of Myrmo and sending him out of the tournament.
