Vedes Vanquished

Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Facing a raise to 6,500 from middle position, Tommy Vedes pushed all in from the hi-jack for 25,500. The preflop raiser paused slightly before making the call to put the WPT Champion at risk.

Vedes: {4-Spades}{4-Clubs}
Opponent: {J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

Unfortunately for Vedes, he would be unable to survive this race as the {J-Hearts}{J-Spades}{7-Spades}{5-Spades}{10-Hearts} board was spread to end his tournament just shy of the money.
