Ben Bracken was down to just three big blinds when he put his tournament life at risk. John Abraham made the preflop call and was ahead but Bracken had two live cards.

Ben Bracken: {q-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}
John Abraham: {a-Hearts}{2-Spades}

The board ran out {4-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{4-Spades} and Bracken was sent to the payout desk in sixth place.,

Level 22 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante

The unknown player moved all-in preflop and John Griswold snap-called, putting the unknown player at risk.

Player Unknown: {j-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}
John Griswold: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

Not much the unknown player could do with a sub ten big blind stack but he ran into a monster and Griswold sent him to the rail after a {q-Clubs}{10-Spades}{2-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{9-Hearts} run out.
