Kyle Cartwright, the two-time WSOP-Circuit ring winner at Harrah's Tunica, called Brandon Steven's five-bet all in shove and the cards were turned up:
Steven:
Cartwright:
In all fairness, it didn't cost Cartwright much more to call, and he did catch some help on the flop. He could now win with one of the two remaining queens. The turn was not one of them, but the on the river was. Cartwright shot from his chair in excitement while Steven, who if you recall was the final table bubble boy in last years WSOP Main Event, hung his head in disbelief.
Steven was eliminated from the tournament in 31st place while Cartwright chipped up to 800,000!
