Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

A short-stacked Vanessa Rousso made her last stand holding A-9. Tom Schneider looked her up holding a pair of sevens. It was a race situation, but Schneider's pair prevailed as he flopped a set, and turned a full house to send Lady Maverick out of the tournament just short of the money.

Dale Morrow was just eliminated by John Devia when his A-Q couldn't outrun the A-K of Devia. Neither player made a pair and Devia's A-K high was best. Morrow chalked it up to bad luck as he exited the tournament room.

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

A short-stacked Jordan Rich was all in preflop holding K-7. He was up against the slightly favored A-3 suited of his opponent. Rich took the lead when the flop came Q-J-7. Rich then sealed the deal when the turn and river both brought sevens. Rich's four of a kind was the nuts, and he doubled up to about 100,000.
