Tom Rafferty- 21st Place
Tom Rafferty- 21st Place
Tom Rafferty open-pushed for 169,000 from early position and Grant Levy called from the button. Rafferty turned up {A-Spades}{9-Clubs}, dominated by Levy's {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades}. The flop was {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}, the turn was the {4-Spades}, the river was the {4-Diamonds}, and Rafferty was crippled to only 17,000 in chips.

Two hands later, Rafferty was all in in the big blind for 13,000. With the action folded around to Tanya Hill in the small blind, she called without even looking at her hand, and turned up {J-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}, while Rafferty showed {2-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}. The flop was {K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} and the turn was the {10-Hearts} making Hill's straight. The river was the {K-Spades} and Rafferty made his exit in 21st place, earning $9,580.
