A short-stacked player was all in preflop for their last 17,000 and primed to double through Matt Stout.
Matt Stout:
Opponent:
Stout was dominated and the flop didn't do him any favors. However, the turn certainly did as he hit his two outer to take the lead. The river was of no consequence as Stout stacked the pot and sent his mumbling opponent to the rail.

Arguably the biggest and most anticipated is this very tournament, but if you’re looking to make a trip to Sin City this summer, we’ve come up with a suggested agenda of tournaments to play from June 25-July 13.
“This was a fun schedule to plan and involved multiple properties collaborating with one goal in mind - to create a 3-4 week window that was jam-packed with events,” said Wynn Director of Poker Operations Ryan Beauregard. “We knew that if we fit the pieces together correctly, it would create a seamless schedule with a variety of price points and allow players to maximize their tournament schedule while in Las Vegas.”
Who knew you could fit so many great events into a two-week period!
After competing in the Wynn Millions, you can head down the street to Venetian, which will host a $5,000 buy-in, $3 million GTD World Poker Tour Main Event from July 2-7.

In the very next hand, Negreanu raised to 1,600 from the hijack and Wyoming's Ryan Remington called from the button. The player in the small blind called, as did the big, and it was four-way action to a flop of .
