Stuart Paterson Eliminated

After the player in the cutoff raised to 1,300 Paterson moved all in for his last 9,200 from the button. The small blind called and once the cutoff got out of the way Paterson learned that his {A-Diamonds} {10-Hearts} had run into the small blind's {Q-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds}.

The {10-Spades} {9-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} gave Paterson some hope but the {8-Spades} on the turn gave his opponent the straight. Paterson needed a queen on the river for a chop but instead the {8-Clubs} fell and he was eliminated.
