Tyler Barnes raised to 5,000 from middle position and was called by Matthew Snook in the hijack and Darol Rodrock on the button. In the big blind, James Hobbs moved all in for 36,000, which saw Barnes fold, Snook call for his last 29,500 and Rodrock call to cover them both.
Matthew Snook: 10♣9♣
James Hobbs: 3♥3♣
Darol Rodrock: 10♦9♦
Both Snook and Rodrock held the same hand, leaving Hobbs in better shape to double up. However the runout of 4♣7♥7♦6♦K♦ had different ideas in mind as the three diamonds provided a flush to Rodrock to eliminate both players from the tournament.
