Loren Klein opened for 12,000 from the cutoff, Steve Sung three-bet to 40,000 from the small blind and Klein made the call.

The flop came down {K-Hearts} {9-Clubs} {7-Hearts}. Sung led out for 51,000, Klein re-potted all in and Sung called.

Klein {K-Spades} {K-Diamonds} {9-Hearts} {5-Hearts}
Sung {Q-Clubs} {10-Clubs} {8-Hearts} {6-Hearts}

Klein's top set and flush re-draw led Sung's wrap draw and held up through the {8-Diamonds} on the turn and the {9-Diamonds} on the river.

After the hand Klein was up to 180,000 while Sung fell to 120,000.

It only took two hands for Mark Tademy's night to come to end.

In the first, he got crippled by Theo Jorgensen when his two pair got rivered on a board of {Q-Hearts}{2-Spades}{10-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} when Jorgensen made Broadway while holding {K-Clubs}{6-Spades}{8-Clubs}{A-Spades}.

In the very next hand, Tademy raised to 12,000 from the cutoff and got reraised by Isaac Baron on the button. Tademy called and the hands opened.

Tademy: {Q-Spades}{10-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{3-Spades}
Baron: {4-Hearts}{4-Spades}{A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}

Baron flopped a house when the board came {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} and improved when the turn and river brought the {6-Diamonds} and {A-Spades}. Baron now has 130,000 chips while Tademy earned $7,621 for his efforts.

A Big Hand Collapses for Elbaz

[user108095]
Mikey Stoltz wasn't in the hand, put he passed along the details about Jacob Elbaz's elimination from the tournament.

Stoltz tells us Elbaz got all in with Chad Layne before the flop and was way ahead while holding {A-Clubs}{A-?}{K-Clubs}{K-?} to Layne's {A-?}{8-?}{10-Spades}{3-Spades}.

Layne jumped in front when he flopped a spade flush, and Elbaz never caught up.

[user108095]
Greg Aversa told us the details of his final hand. He said he got his chips in preflop against Mark Tademy while holding {A-?}{4-?}{5-?}{6-?}.

Tademy held {Q-?}{2-?}{9-?}{10-?} and made a better two pair when the board came queen-4-2-5-9.
