"All ins at both tables," tournament director Jerry Sorrells announced as Wilfred Westerman had shoved for 1,400,000 on the button and was called by Mitch Hogue in the big blind.

Mitch Hogue: 1010

Westerman hit an ace on the A107 flop, but Hogue made a set and stayed ahead on the 5 turn and K river to send Westerman to the rail.

Gary Ewald was also all in for 1,000,000 from middle position on the other table and up against Kyle Shipman in early position.

Gary Ewald: 1010 All in
Kyle Shipman: AQ

There would be no set for Ewald, but instead Shipman hit a pair on the 2K7Q2 board as Ewald was also eliminated.
