Brutal River for Ormson
Allen Shen raised to 8,000 in the hijack, and Brandon Wilson flatted from the cutoff. On his direct left, Larry Ormson opted to shove for 60,000 on the dot. Shen then reshoved for 101,500, and Wilson, with the covering stack, had a decision on his hands. "Chad Holloway style!" announced Ormson during Wilson's tank, as he realised either his bustout or survival would be covered by PokerNews. Wilson eventually found the fold.
Larry Ormson: K♣9♣ 
Allen Shen: 7♣7♦
"Two overs!" announced Ormson, as he hit one on the 9♦J♣4♥ flop. The J♠ turn almost had the board locked up for him, but the 7♥ river turned the tables, and it would be Shen to scoop in the chips. Ormson, still with a smile on his face, offered good luck to his tablemates as he headed out.
