Tommy Vedes - 19th Place

Last night we had an interminably long bubble from four tables to three tables, with a $99,000 pay jump on the line. Today the pay jump from three tables to two tables is $150,000 but our bubble didn't last long at all. Tommy Vedes moved in for 1.9 million after Eric Buchman opend from the button for 425,000. Buchman called with {7-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

{7-Diamonds}

; Vedes showed down a small pair, {3-Hearts}

{3-Hearts}

{3-Spades}

.

The crowd momentarily went crazy on a flop of {10-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

, seeing that Vedes had flopped a set and not realizing that Buchman also flopped a set. The turn {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

and river

{2-Spades}

were no help for Vedes. He finishes in 19th place, guaranteeing everyone else still left in the tournament a half-million dollars in prize money.
