Hobson:
Stammen:

"Two outs," Hobson pointed out upon seeing he his pair was dominated. The flop gave him some runner-runner straight possibilities, but the turn quickly dashed those hopes. It was down to a nine for Hobson, but it wasn't in the cards as the peeled off.

As the start-of-the-day chip leader Hobson no doubt had dreams of a gold bracelet, but he'll have to settle for a $15,643 consolation prize instead.
