Somerville Sucks Out

Level 4 : 100/200, 0 ante

With a {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{8-Spades} flop exposed in the middle of the table Jason Somerville bet out around 700. His opponent on the button then raised it to 1,700. Somerville took his time before moving all of his chips into the middle for about 5,000. A call was made and Somerville's tournament life was at risk.

Somerville: {K-Clubs}{10-Hearts}
Opponent: {A-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

With the {Q-Clubs} on the turn Somerville hit broadway and was one card away from doubling up. A {2-Diamonds} rattled off the deck for the river and Somerville was awarded the pot.

Tom Schneider First Victor

We don't know what exactly happened on the winning hand, but what we do know is Tom Schneider out lasted nine other players and will be moving on to tomorrow. With only a handful of tables heads up Schneider has plenty of time to rest seeing as he finished in under four hours.
