On a flop of 2♠10♣7♠, Scott Rickets was already all in while Truman Weatherly and another player battled it out on the side.
Weatherly checked to his opponent who then set out a large bet of 70,000 and Weatherly tanked for a good while before he sighed and slid his cards into the muck.
Scott Rickets: A♣A♦
Opponent: J♣J♠
The board ran out 2♣6♦ for Rickets' aces to hold and he was awarded the pot for a triple-up. Meanwhile, Weatherly was kicking himself at the runout and had to take a walk to calm down.

After getting a shove through the previous hand, Preston McEwen moved all in preflop once again but was called by Jacob Foley to put him at risk.
Preston McEwen: A♥2♥
Jacob Foley: K♣K♠
McEwen would need some help to stay alive, but the runout of [10hqs1-s3h7c] did not do it and he was sent t the registration desk to immediately jump into another tournament.
