Michalek Knocks Out Houchins, Now Second In Chips
Level 21
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
"I'm drawing dead." These were the words from Patrick Houchins after his shove on a 
flop was called by Norman Michalek. Houchins held 
, but he had no hope, as Michalek held 
. He could actually still catch a running nine and ten for a straight, but the turn and river were the 
and
. Houchins let out a sarcastic chuckle when he saw the queen hit the river, before wishing the table good luck, and heading to the payout desk.
Meanwhile, Michalek is our new chip leader after that pot, as he now has 780,000.
