Brand Eliminates Patterson

Level 24 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Tyler Patterson
Tyler Patterson

Tyler Patterson moved all in from under the gun and Chris Brand called from middle position. The rest of the table folded and their hands were revealed.

Tyler Patterson: {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}
Chris Brand: {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}

Board: {k-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{j-Spades}{5-Spades}{9-Spades}

It was a classic race for Brand and Patterson.

"Okay, that's an alright flop," said Patterson after he picked up additional outs.

"I don't want the ten now," replied Brand.

Brand got his wish as there was no ten, ace or queen on the turn or river as he moved up to 1.6 million. Bracelet winner Patterson took $6,794 for his run.
