Battle of the Old Timers

On a flop of {4-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{6-Spades}, Russell Morley and Harry Tomishima had all of their money in the pot. What is interesting about this match-up is that these were the two oldest gentlemen left in the tournament at 80 years old.

Tomishima was the one at risk, having committed his remaining 23,000, and held pocket jacks. Unfortunately for him, Morely held {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs} and was far ahead.

The turn and river both blanked for Tomishima and he was sent to the rail with a nice round of applause from the remaining players. This makes Morely the oldest person left in the Seniors Championship.
