Muneer Ahmed "Borrows Liu's Horseshoe"

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Muneer Ahmed shoved all in. Peixin Liu reshoved over the top from the button and both blinds folded.

Ahmed: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
Liu: {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

The flop came {10-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{3-Hearts}. DJ Buckley said, "bring the jack," and without waiting the turn came the {j-Diamonds}. DJ said, "I wont call for anything else."

When the {a-Hearts} came on the river, Ahmed said, "Yes," with a sigh of relief.

Liu said, "That one hurt."

Ahmed replied, "I just borrowed your horseshoe for a minute."

Clayton Warner Eliminated in 9th Place ($6,333)

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Muneer Ahmed raised to 65,000 on the button. Clayton Warner shoved all in from the small blind, and Ben Marsh reshoved over the top from the small blind. Ahmed folded.

Marsh: {6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}
Warner: {a-Hearts}{j-Clubs}

Warner is in great shape when the flop falls {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}.

But when the {6-Clubs} comes on the turn, many players at the table gasp and one says, "Sick game."

The {7-Clubs} on the river did not improve Warner's hand and he is eliminated in 9th place, taking home $6,333.

"I have the wheel," said Liu as he turned over {a-Hearts}{3-Hearts}. Marsh mucked his cards face down.
