Brendan Waite had just scooped up a pot and was in the middle of stacking chips when he checked his cards under the gun. He raised to 32,000, and a short-stacked Thomas Meyer went all in for 95,000. Sean Small, in the big blind, went all in over the top of that for 263,000 total. Waite instantly called.
Waite:
Small:
Meyer:
The flop brought little hope for the Small and Meyer: . A
on the turn eliminated Meyer from the pot and the tournament in 15th place, but a
on the river gave Small new life. Mark Bonsack commented that it was the case jack.
