On the previous hand, Jason Wheeler had opened to 12,500 from the cutoff, and Lori Nunes reraised to 21,500 right next door. Wheeler called, and the flop came 
. As soon as the dealer fanned those cards, Nunes shoved all in, and Wheeler was forced to lay it down.
Fast forward one hand, and we see Steve Nixon opening to 10,000 before Wheeler three-bet to 27,500. Nunes wanted to play for more again, though, and she four-bet shoved for about 150,000 total. When it came back around to Nixon, he tanked and called all in for less than 100,000, and Wheeler ducked out of the way. With Nixon at risk, the cards were turned up:
Nixon: 
Nunes: 
The 
flop gave Nixon a little bit of hope, and the 
turn still left him with four outs to the double up. The river 
was most certainly not a ten, however, and Nixon could not catch up. He's out in 21st place, good for double his buy-in.
