Hwang Chops Down Hendriks

Robert Hwang and Kelsey Hendriks found their chips in the middle preflop in one of the first hands back from the dinner break.

Hwang: {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}
Hendriks: {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}

The typical tournament race saw the pair hold against the overcards as the board ran out {8-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{6-Hearts}. Hwang made a ten-high straight to send Hendriks to the rail.
