Tens Hold for Mourtadh, Eliminates Kearns

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

There was all in action preflop between Alias Mourtadh and Peter Kearns.

Peter Kearns: {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Alias Mourtadh: {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}

Mourtadh was ahead with his made hand of tens and nothing changed after the {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{k-Diamonds} flop.

The {9-Spades} fell on the turn and Kearns needed any king or queen to fall to double up.

Unfortunately for Kearns, the dealer double paired the board with the {9-Hearts} and he exited the playing field.
