"Red Bull" Robbie Thompson has to content himself with a min-cash.

"Red Bull" Robbie Thompson shoved all in from under the gun for 61,000, and Phil Mader reshipped from the cutoff for 97,000. Everyone else folded.

Thompson: {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}
Mader: {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

Things were grim for the dominated Thompson, and it got bleaker as the flop came {8-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{7-Clubs}, giving Mader a flush draw to close off the {a-Clubs} as an out. The {8-Spades} turn kept Mader in front, and a {6-Clubs} gave him a flush on the river to eliminated the well-known World Series of Poker tournament director and announcer.

Paul Skjerseth busted at another table.
