Rodriguez Runs Into Big Slick
Level 21
: 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
James Rodriguez open-jammed for around 280,000 in early position and saw Victor Shumway re-jam with a stack that covered slightly, doing so from middle position and forcing folds from everybody behind.
James Rodriguez: 
Victor Shumway: 
Rodriguez hit neither of his two live cards on the flop 
, and the turn 
paired Shumway, leaving Rodriguez drawing dead to the river 
to bring about the overall Day 1 chip leader's elimination from the tournament.
