Hamrick Van-Busted

Vince Van Patten opened to 200 in late position and Dean Hamrick re-raised to 650 in the cutoff. Van Patten called.

The dealer flopped {4-Spades}{10-Spades}{6-Clubs} and Van Patten checked to Hamrick who bet 725. Van Patten check-raised all in for effectively 4,000 or so and Hamrick called all in.

Showdown
Van Patten: {8-Hearts}{4-Hearts}
Hamrick: {A-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}

Van Patten was behind, but not for long because the {4-Diamonds} fell on the turn giving him two pair. The {8-Hearts} on the river filled him up for kicks and giggles, and he chipped up to 12,800.

After the brutal beat, Hamrick was eliminated from the tournament.
