Nelly Knocked Off

[user66118]

Nelly had been worked down to about 14,000 chips before this hand unfolded, and it would be his final hand of the tournament.

On a turned board showing {A-?}

{A-?}

{4-?}

{5-?}

{K-?}

, Nelly got his remaining stack into the middle with {A-?}

{A-?}

{K-?}

. Top two is good, but it's not as good as a wheel; his opponent tabled {2-?}

{2-?}

{3-?}

, and the rapper would need to fill up in order to stay alive. The river brought an unhelpful {2-?}

{2-?}

though, and Nelly has been eliminated.
