With Joe "jimjam01" Serock on the button and Joe "jimjam01" Serock in the big blind, this shallow stacked confrontation saw both players all in and Hall at risk.
Thomas "lultaxpayers" Hall: A♦A♥10♦3♠
Joe "jimjam01" Serock: K♥K♠4♠3♥
With Hall seeing his kings were already inferior to the aces of Serock, the flop that came 6♣9♠6♠ brought some hope in the form of a flush draw. Unfortunately for Hall, on the Q♣ turn and the 4♣, he was sent to the rail in 3rd place.
The tournament is now heads up as Millard "meekmill" Hale hold the chip lead.
