Hamm's Aces Cracked To Take Tournament To 18

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Clayton Hamm
Clayton Hamm

Clayton Hamm had a bet of 35,000 in front of him from early position on a board of {4-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{q-Clubs} and action was on Jeff Banghart, who was in the small blind.

Banghart check-raised all in to effectively put Hamm to a decision for his tournament life. He quickly called.

Clayton Hamm: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}
Jeff Banghart: {8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}

Hamm was in need of hitting running cards to improve to a full house after finding out he was up against Banghart's flopped flush. The turn came {k-Clubs} to leave him drawing dead and the river fell {4-Diamonds}, resulting in Hamm walking to the rail as tournament director Patrick Roy called for a high card to be dealt at the breaking table to condense the tournament's 18 remaining players down to two full tables.
