Willcocks Waivering

With a double-up from Eddie Mascardi, Phillip Willcocks is no longer the dominating chipleader as he was a the start of the final table.

Folded to Mascardi in late position he moved his remaining 300,000 into the middle. Willcocks would be the lone caller, throwing the extra chips from the small blind.

Mascardi: {a-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Willcocks: {8-Spades}{8-Hearts}

While the {10-Spades}{5-Spades}{6-Spades} flop didnt give Mascardi enough for the victory, he did have bunch more outs, now needing any spade, any ace or and jack to make the double-up.

The {q-Hearts} on the turn would be of no help, but fellow New Zealander assured Willcocks that he had no chance of taking down this pot, using some profanities to describe the state of Willcocks hand.

Zheng's predicition would come true when the {7-Spades} landed on the river and Mascardi would take the double-up, while Willcocks is now only a slight chip leader.
