Double Elimination for Engerman

Level 17 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

It was a clash of the premium hands just now, with three players committing all their chips preflop. John Orth moved all in first in middle position and Benjamin Moon shoved over the top from the small blind. Lawrence Engerman over called in the big blind and the trio spun their cards on their backs.

Lawrence Engerman: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Benjamin Moon: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}
John Orth: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

Moon and Orth were drawing pretty thin and the {7-Clubs}{8-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} board favored Engerman's ladies, sending both Moon and Orth to the rail. It sees the end of Moon's hopes to win two bracelets in this year's series, after taking down Event #13: Big Blind Antes $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em.
