The flop came 
. Peters continued with a bet of 1,700 and his opponent called.
The turn brought the 
. Peters shoved all in and got a snap-call by the other player who held 
for a full house. Peters tabled 
for just two pair and was already standing up from the table. The river was a brick and Peters walked out of the tournament area without cashing in his first tournament of the summer here in Las Vegas.
Meanwhile on Table #78, JJ Liu bet 400 into a pot of around 1,200 on the 
board and her opponent in the hijack called.
The
