An Elimination Just Before the Break

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

In the last hand before the break, a big hand was brewing over at the feature table.

On a flop of {7-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{10-Diamonds}, Weiyi Mo had checked from the small blind and chip leader Jerry Calvaneso bet 8,000. Mo responded by moving all in for 64,600 more, and Calvaneso thought long and hard before making the call.

Mo: {7-Spades}{6-Clubs}
Calvaneso: {10-Spades}{9-Spades}

Calvaneso had flopped top pair with a gutshot straight draw, which was behind the two pair of Mo. Some players from the other tables began to gather during the break, and they watched as the {2-Hearts} turn brought Mo one step closer to a double.

Unfortunately for her, the {8-Hearts} then spiked on the river to give Calvaneso a straight. The railbirds erupted in disbelief that Calvaneso, who has been running hot all tournament, continued his run good.
