Tomko Looks to Tomorrow

Holding pocket rockets, Dewey Tomko called a shorter stack's all-in on a flop of {J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}, only to find himself up against jack-five. The turn and river didn't help Tomko, and he was down to 2,350.

A few hands later, Tomko pushed the rest of his chips in the middle after flopping an open-ended straight draw. He didn't get there, and has been eliminated.
