Two More Bust Outs Take Tournament Two from the Money

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

The seats that Stephen Driggers and Sergio Ruiz quickly became vacant after the final four tables of the tournament were reached. Tablemates Jason Vanstrom and Sean Maher filled in the details as to what went down.

Firstly, Driggers open-jammed for around 80,000 with {8-}{8-} and ran it into the {10-}{10-} of Matt Livingston. Driggers spiked an eight on {8-}{k-}{j-} but running {k-}{k-} counterfeited his boat and sent him packing.

On a later hand, Vanstrom opened in the cutoff and received three calls behind from Ruiz on the button, Maher in the small blind, and Al Hart in the big blind.

Action checked to Vanstrom and he continuation-bet on {k-}{q-}{10-} with Ruiz jamming over the top. Maher called and Vanstrom folded {a-}{k-}.

Sergio Ruiz: {k-}{k-}
Sean Maher: {a-}{j-}

Maher's flopped nuts were ahead of Ruiz's top set and the board remained unpaired through the final two cards of the runout.
