Rollercoaster Run Out Eliminates Little
Edward Sebesta raised to 40,000 from under the gun, which was called by Nicholas Seward in the cutoff, James Collopy on the button, and Elias Gutierrez in the small blind. Then Jonathan Little three-bet all in for his stack of 679,000, and after confirming the count, Sebesta called. That got Seward, Collopy, and Gutierrez to fold, leaving the players heads up, with Little at risk.
Jonathan Little: 9♥9♣
Edward Sebesta: Q♠Q♣
Sebesta had Little in rough shape with the bigger pocket pair, but after the flop came 9♦6♥7♣ it was Little who had the commanding lead after flopping a set of nines. But the Q♥ on the turn Put Sebesta back in front with the bigger set, and the K♠ on the river gave him the pot with his set of queens, eliminating Little.
At the other table Andrew Lichtenberger was seen exiting the tournament area after being eliminated.
