Ward Off the Tournament
Level 17
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Action was picked up with two players engaged in an all-in showdown on a classic coin flip.
Andrew Ward: Q♦Q♠
Robert Boryca: A♣K♣
The dealer fanned out Q♣J♠4♣, giving Ward a set, but at the same time, Boryca's outs increased with a possible flush.
The turn 8♦ didn't change the status quo, but the 2♣ river gave Boryca his flush out, kicking Ward out of the tournament.
