Whitaker Whacked by Nitsche

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Andrew Whitaker is no longer in this tournament after losing a coinflip for his tournament life.

Whitaker chose the {A-Spades}{K-Spades} to commit his stack with but he ran into some resistance when Dominik Nitsche called with {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}. Whitaker paired his king on the flop, but Nitshce flopped a set to leave Whitaker drawing almost dead. The {7-Diamonds} turn locked up the hand for Nitsche, rendering the {K-Clubs} river inconsequential.
