Clark Eliminates Nahm and Vieira
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Taylor Clark opened to 3,000 from under the gun and was called by Stephen Nahm in middle position as well as Joao Vieira in the big blind.
Action checked to Nahm following the 8♦7♦10♣ flop and he bet 10,800. Vieira responded by raising to 43,200 only to see Clark reraise enough to force both of his opponents all in. Nahm and Vieira quickly called off for their tournament lives.
Stephen Nahm: A♣10♠4♠2♦
Joao Vieira: A♥10♥3♠2♠
Taylor Clark: A♦J♣5♦3♣
It was a fairly even fight with Nahm and Vieira set to split a low should it materialize on the turn or river. That did not happen, however, as the board ran out 8♣Q♦ to improve Clark to a flush and send both of his opponents out of the tournament.
