Todd Brunson, one of the departed

Todd Brunson and Brent Carter were both all in after the turn, and Sam Khouiss called them both down, putting the fate of two players in his hands. The four cards in the middle of the table read {5-Clubs} {2-Clubs} {5-Diamonds} {10-Spades}.

Showdown
Khouiss: {A-Spades} {J-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} {5-Hearts}
Brunson: {A-Hearts} {J-Clubs} {10-Hearts} {4-Clubs}
Carter: {A-Diamonds} {K-Hearts} {8-Spades} {3-Spades}

The two at-risk players were in bad shape against Khouiss' full book, drawing dead to the high and slim to the low. The river ragged off with the {K-Clubs}, no help to either player. With that big pot, Sam Khouiss has eliminated two players, chipping up to 235,000 in the process.

Todd Brunson and Brent Carter have both been shown the door. "Floor, we have three seats open!" yelled Jean-Robert Bellande, not bothering to wait until the newly-eliminated players were out of earshot.
