There's not much else Eric Baldwin could have done differently to avoid losing his match against Leo Wolpert. He had Wolpert on the ropes with queens against queen-ten but Wolpert slithered away. Then, down to 5,000 chips, Baldwin shoved with {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{6-Clubs}

and Wolpert called with {k-Spades}

{k-Spades}

{8-Diamonds}

. The board was all blanks, with neither player connecting, until the river fell {8-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

to make a pair of eights for Wolpert to give him the victory.

Just one match remains to close out the Clubs Bracket.
