Wakeman Eliminated by Warne

Level 4 : 300/600, 600 ante

All the money looked to be in on the turn between Matthew Wakeman and Leigh Warne. Wakeman was holding {Q-Spades}{10-Spades} while Warne held {10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} with the board showing {10-Hearts}{5-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{8-Spades}. Warne had top two against Wakeman's top pair and was in the lead.

The river was the {5-Diamonds} and that gave Wakeman two pair as well, but it was an inferior two pair. With that he was eliminated from the tournament and headed to the registration desk to re-enter. Warne now sits with about 60,000 chips and has one of the healthier stacks.
