Moments after Jerry Monroe, who won the IP Biloxi Main Event earlier this year, was eliminated from the tournament, the IP Biloxi Casino Champion, Gene Dudek, followed him out the door. As Dudek explained when he passed by our desk, he was nursing an 8.5bb stack and moved all in from the small blind after the button had raised.

The big blind got out of the way and the button called with {A-}{2-}. Dudek was ahead with {8-}{8-}, but an ace on the flop put an end to his WSOP Circuit Harrah's New Orleans Main Event dreams. Nonetheless, we'll be seeing Dudek in just a couple months in Las Vegas for the National Championship.
