Carroll Spikes an Ace on the River to Eliminate Rummel

Action folded around to Jim Carroll on the button and he brought it in with a raise to 25,000. The small blind folded, and then Jody Rummel moved all in from the big for 139,000. Carroll asked for a count, assessed how much it'd cost him, and then made the call.

Carroll: {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}
Rummel: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}

The {3-Hearts}{7-Spades}{4-Clubs} flop was safe for Rummel, as was the {5-Hearts} turn, but you've read the title of this post and already know what happened next. The dealer burned and put down the {A-Diamonds}. Carroll paired his ace to send Rummel to the rail.

Various Counts at Break

Poynter Loses Race, Busts

Steve Galey opened to 23,000 in early position, Jim Carroll called in the hijack seat, and Dale Poynter three-bet to 60,000 on the button. Galey called, Carroll moved all in for what looked like 200,000, and Poynter called all-in for less. Galey unhappily folded.

Carroll: {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Poynter: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}

The queens held as the board ran out {7-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{5-Spades}{6-Diamonds}, and Poynter was eliminated.

Carroll now sits with around 375,000 chips.

Bassett Sets Up Green

Kyle Green, who graced the top of the chip counts for much of Day 1b, has just been eliminated from the tournament.

Green, who has been stuck in reverse here on Day 2, shipped his last 70,000 or so all in preflop with {A-Hearts}{4-Hearts} after action folded to him in the hijack. Brenda Bassett, who dispatched Roy Henry not long ago, then called from the button with {3-Spades}{2-Hearts}.

It was a flip, but not after the {8-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} flop gave Bassett a set. The {5-Hearts} turn paired the board to leave Green drawing dead, and after the {6-Diamonds} was put out on the river for good measure, he was escorted to the payout desk.

Cleland Busts Nguyen

Hien Nguyen (Day 1b) - Eliminated
Hien Nguyen (Day 1b) - Eliminated

Jim Cleland moved all in for 160,000 or so from early position, and the action folded to Hien Nguyen who called all in for less (around 60,000). The rest of the players folded.

Cleland: {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}
Nguyen: {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}

There was a queen on the {q-Spades}{10-Hearts}{6-Spades} flop, and Cleland's pair held as the turn and river came {7-Clubs}, {4-Spades} respectively.

Nguyen is out, while Cleland now sits with 230,000 chips.

Hoffman Wakes Up with Pocket Rockets

Brant Hale opened for 21,000 from under the gun and cleared the field all the way to Todd Hoffman, who moved all in from the big blind for 73,000. Hale asked for a count, kind of shrugged, and then tossed in a call.

Hoffman: {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}
Hale: {A-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}

Hoffman woke up with a big hand and received a welcomed double after the board ran out {K-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}.
