Jared Hamby Eliminates a Player

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

On a {a-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} board, a player checked to Jared Hamby who bet 400. His opponent then check-raised to 1,600. Hamby moved all in and his opponent called.

All-in player: {q-}{q-}{6-}{3-}
Hamby: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{a-Spades}{4-Hearts}

Hamby had top set, had his opponent drawing close to dead because if the board paired, Hamby would make a bigger full house. His opponent needed running sixes or threes, but the turn was the {j-Hearts} and the river was the {8-Diamonds} and he was eliminated.

"It's been a summer of getting two-outed and bubbling every tournament I play," explained Hamby. "At least in this tournament you're not going to get two-outed. Maybe 15-outed.

"I can handle that!"
