Chang Ousted by Mendoza in Duel of Shorties
Level 6
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Over on the outer table, the two short stacks got their chips into the middle with near even stack sizes.
Nevan Chang: 10♠10♦ 
James Mendoza: A♠K♥
The A♣8♥6♠ flop instantly vaulted James Mendoza into the lead and Nevan Chang needed to catch a ten or running cards for a straight. One of the possible options came with the Q♠ turn but the 3♦ river brought no help for Chang, who was covered by a mere big blind and change.
