From Penthouse to Outhouse -- Richardson Eliminated

First, on a flop of {K-Spades} {7-Spades} {10-Spades}, Adam Richardson called an all-in bet from another opponent. Richardson held {7-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} and his opponent held {10-Hearts} {10-Diamonds}. No help came on the turn or river, and Richardson ended up with only 19,000 remaining after the hand.

Next, Richardson moved all in preflop against an opponent in the small blind and was called. Richardson held {Q-Diamonds} {6-Clubs} and his opponent held {A-Hearts} {A-Diamonds}. A turn ace left Richardson drawing dead and Richardson is eliminated from the Main Event.
