One Outer Sends Ladny to the Rail
Level 16
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 5,000 ante
It was a battle of the blinds after Eric Ladny shoved for his final 112,000 from the small blind and was snap-called by Kate Kopp in the big blind as Ladny was at risk.
Eric Ladny: K♣Q♠
Kate Kopp: Q♥Q♦
Ladny was in trouble and hunting for a king. Lucky for him, a king came on the flop when it came 9♠K♦8♣. Kopp was drawing to the final queen in the deck.
Unfortunately for Ladny, the turn was in the mood for a one-outer as Kopp hit the Q♣ on the turn to improve to a set of queens and the best hand.
The J♣ completed the board as Ladny was eliminated late on Day 1d.
