Oopsie!

On a flop of {7-Spades}{6-Spades}{9-Hearts} Jimmy Tran checks the BB and Tim McCarthy bets 84K. For some reason the dealer thinks Jimmy has folded and mucks the flop. A loud yelp goes up and the floor is called, everyone agrees on the flop cards and Jimmy is very adamant about those cards. Once they are retrieved from the muck, Jimmy raises 200K, which will put Tim all-in. After a long thought, Tim says: "Show me this one Jimmy and I will give you one later."

Jimmy says yes. Tim mucks and Jimmy shows the {8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for the flopped straight. Tim says he had a big pair but since Jimmy really wanted that mucked flop back, he knew he was strong.

Jim Worth Eliminates Marc Goodwin in 49th Place ($61,880)

Marc Goodwin
Marc Goodwin
After a flop of {9-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}, Jim "KrazyKanuck" Worth bets from the small blind, Marc Goodwin moves all in from early position, and Kanuck quickly calls with {2-Diamonds}{2-Spades} -- a set of deuces. Goodwin shows {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} for a flush draw.

The turn card pairs the board with the {9-Hearts}, giving Worth a full house. (The meaningless river card is the {Q-Spades}.)

Marc Goodwin is eliminated in 49th place, earning $61,880. Meanwhile, Jim Worth's reputation is growing at his table, where the other players have said he is on fire, seemingly winning every hand.

Justin Young Eliminated in 51st Place

After a flop of {Q-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}, Ben Johnson checked from the SB, Justin Young checked from the BB and Roland de Wolfe bet 42K from the cutoff. Johnson called and Young moved all in. De Wolfe folded and Johnson called. Young showed K-Q for top pair, but Johnson showed {2-Clubs}{2-Spades} for the set. The last two cards were the {9-Hearts} and the {K-Diamonds}, eliminating Young. He won $46,410 for 51st place. Ben Johnson is up to 515K after the hand.
