It's a tale of two short stacks. Sorel Mizzi raised all in for 4,200 after the small blind opened with a raise. The small blind called with {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{10-Clubs}

, leaving Mizzi's {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{5-Clubs}

in trouble. The board ran out {7-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

{Q-Clubs}

{A-Hearts}

{J-Clubs}

, not enough help to Mizzi. He's out.

At the other end of the room, Marc Convey got his stack in the middle and was called. Convey's opponent showed pocket nines, but Convey had the nuts -- pocket aces. Pocket aces held to double Convey to about 15,000.
