Mather Solves a Riddle; Brooks Gone
Level 15
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
After doubling up Ryan Awwad shortly before hand, Michael Riddle moved his last 29,000 into the center from the hijack and Johnny Ye called in the cutoff. In the small blind, Bob Mather moved all in for more and Ye folded.
Michael Riddle: A♣10♥ 
Bob Mather: A♦Q♥
The board ran out as no help to Riddle and Mather raked in his chips.
At another table, Mike Lancaster was all in for his last 120,000 from late position and Harley Brooks called in hijack.
Mike Lancaster: 9♥9♠
Harley Brooks: K♦Q♦
The board ran out 10♥8♥7♠10♠7♥ and the nines held up for Lancaster to leave Brooks with just two big blinds after the hand.
A couple of minutes later he had made his way to the exit.
