Norman Contreras Eliminated

Action folded around to Norman Contreras in the small blind and he moved all in for about 250,000. Dan Lu, who had Contreras covered by just 1,000 chips, called instantly from the big blind and the players showed:

Contreras: {10-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}
Lu: {7-Hearts} {7-Diamonds}

Board: {A-Hearts} {3-Spades} {2-Clubs} {3-Clubs} {3-Diamonds}

Despite flopping a gutshot wheel draw, Contreras came up short in the hand and was eliminated. Lu doubled up to 563,000 on the hand.
