Young Falls Victim to the Über-Cooler!

There's a term we like to use in the industry for that dreaded "all-in-with-kings-versus-aces". It's known as the über-cooler and it's just one of things you cannot avoid. Jason Young was the victim of said cooler and as a result has now busted from the Main Event.

All the money was in the middle before the flop; Young had the {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs}, but it was Sorel Mizzi that had woken up with the {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}. The dealer spread the board of {3-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{5-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} to give both players two pair, but as they say, "Just like that, huh?"

As Young took his leave, he spoke to our field reporter. "If it was anyone else on the table, I can fold that," before adding, "Sorel leads a blessed life."
