Sigi Stockinger - 25th Place
Sigi Stockinger - 25th Place
It took two hands to knock Sigi Stockinger out of today's tournament. In the first hand, he was all in preflop against Rino Mathis. Mathis held {J-Spades} {J-Hearts} {5-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} against Stockinger's {Q-Diamonds} {10-Hearts} {9-Hearts} {7-Spades}. A board of {K-Hearts} {2-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds} {A-Hearts} put the hurt on Stockinger, leaving him with just 9,000 chips.

Those chips went in the pot on the next hand with {10-Hearts} {9-Hearts} {9-Spades} {2-Hearts}. He was up against Len Ashby's {A-Clubs} {J-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds} {9-Clubs}, which had flopped the nut flush. The board bricked out, sending Stockinger to the rail $28,651 richer.
