Double Elimination on Table 426

Ricky Markowitz opened with a raise to 11,500 from under the gun. Will Souther called from the next seat over and it folded around to Edmund Chan who moved all in from the small blind. Peter Kamaras moved all in as well from the big blind and Markowitz called.

ESPN cameras swooped in to catch this potential double elimination as Will Souther went into the tank. Souther eventually folded {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} face up and the three hands were tabled with Chan and Kamaras at risk.

Chan: {A-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Kamaras: {Q-Hearts}{4-Hearts}
Markowitz: {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}

Markowitz jumped into the lead on the {2-Spades}{6-Clubs}{K-Spades} flop but there was a small sweat as Chan paired up on the {9-Diamonds} turn. The {5-Diamonds} bricked out on the river and Chan and Kamaras were sent packing.

After the hand, Souther joked to Markowitz by saying "How do you play that crap?" as Souther folded the same hand.
