Chris McClung Eliminated in 24th Place ($7,900)

Stud Hi/Lo:

We just witnessed a massive pot of Stud Hi/Lo involving four players. There was a lot of action, so do your best to follow along. Calvin Anderson brought it in with the {3-Clubs} and was called by Chris Viox. Mikal Blomlie then completed with the {7-Clubs} and Chris McClung, who had 22,600, raised.

Anderson responded with a three-bet, Viox and Blomlie called, and McClung four-bet all in, which all his opponent called. All three active players checked the turn, and then Blomlie bet fifth after Viox had checked. Anderson responded with a raise, Viox called, and Blomlie came along for the ride.

Sixth street saw Blomlie check, Anderson bet, and Viox raise to 24,000. Blomlie then woke up with a three-bet to 36,000, which both Anderson and Viox called. Finally on seventh, Blomlie led out and action was complete when both his opponents called.

Blomlie: {5-Spades} {7-Spades} {2-Clubs} / {7-Clubs} {K-Hearts} {5-Hearts} {5-Clubs}
Anderson: (x-x) / {3-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} {6-Spades} / (x)
Viox: {3-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {K-Clubs} / {8-Hearts} {K-Spades} {4-Hearts} {2-Hearts}
McClung: {2-Spades} {3-Spades} {8-Spades} / {8-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} {J-Spades} {A-Clubs}

Upon seeing Blomlie's full house and Viox's low, Anderson mucked. McClung knew his elimination was at hand, but showed his hand per tournament rules. When all was said and done, Viox and Blomlie split the pot, Anderson was knocked down to 90,000, and McClung made his exit in 24th place, good for $7,900.
