This hand was picked up on the turn on a board of J♠A♠K♥3♣ with over 95,000 in the middle.

Matthew Bates: A♣K♠
Jonathan Tackett: Q♥10♦
Bates held top two pair, but he found himself behind as Tackett flopped a straight, putting Bates on the ropes with one card left.
Bates did not find an ace or a king on the 2♣ river as he was sent out of the tournament.
Both Edward Tancredi and Robert Gardner busted at seperate tables sa the field shrunk downto 27 players.
