2011 World Series of Poker
Stud-8
Catching the action on fourth street, we found Joe Cassidy betting out 20,000 and Kyle Loman making the call before Dwan two-bet. Cassidy called as Loman folded before Cassidy called a bet on fifth street. Sixth and seventh were checked down as both player's boards read as follows.
Cassidy: (X)(X) / 


/ (X)
Loman: (X)(X) / 
(folded on fourth)
Dwan: (X)(X) / 


/ (X)
Cassidy flashed the
, but it would be Dwan's 

that would see him scoop the pot to sit just shy of 1 million as Cassidy was left with just over six big bets.

Michael Binger brought-in and Daniel Ospina completed to 20,000. Once the action was back on Binger, he two-bet only to have Ospina three-bet. Once Binger called, he called a bet on fourth before raising on fifth as Ospina smooth-called. Sixth street was checked through, but when Binger was faced with a bet on seventh, he angrily made the call.
Binger: (X)(X) /

With everyone on Tom Dwan-watch, we unfortunately missed the exact details of Ram Vaswani's elimination.
Stud
Speaking to Tournament Director Robbie Thompson, he detailed to us that Michael Binger made sixes and deuces and Vaswani bricked out eventually making just an ace-high.
Vaswani heads to the rail in 12th place, and will collect $38,916 for his efforts to add to his $3.4 million in lifetime earnings, 16 WSOP cashes and one gold bracelet ($1,500 Limit Hold'em Shootout in 2007).

Tom Dwan brought in with the king and then Fabrice Soulier completed. Kyle Loman made the call and Dwan also splashed in the chips to see fourth street. On fourth street, Soulier had the best hand showing and led the betting with both Dwan and Loman calling. On fifth, Soulier bet again and both players called.
On sixth street it was Loman who bet and got called by both players. Then on seventh, everyone checked.
Loman turned over 

for an eighty-seven. Dwan gave his famous "look to the sky" and rolled his eyes with his mouth open while tossing his hand into the muck. Soulier also mucked and Loman won the pot.
