Bob Lauria is out. He re-raised all in pre-flop with pocket queens and ran right into pocket aces. An ace on the flop was the nail in Lauria's coffin.

Ben Stoesser is also out. He re-raised all in for roughly 50,000 after Steve Billirakis opened with a standard raise from the button. Billirakis called with {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{4-Hearts}

, a 3-to-1 underdog to Stoesser's {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{8-Clubs}

. It was the river (isn't it always the river?) that did in Stoesser, {2-Clubs}

{2-Clubs}

{6-Hearts}

{5-Diamonds}

{J-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

. Billirakis' 6-high straight dragged the pot and increased his count to 560,000.
