Two Hands Results in Two Eliminations Over at Table 7

Level 7 : 300/600, 75 ante

Two seats just opened up over at Table 7 in back-to-back hands.

In the first, an unknown player got his stack all in on a flop of {9-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{5-Spades} holding the {7-Clubs}{6-Clubs} against the {9-Hearts}{9-Spades} of Sharman Olshan. The at-risk player had plenty of outs, but he came up empty as the {J-Hearts} blanked on the turn followed by the {Q-Hearts} on the river.

In the very next hand, another player got his last 10,000 or so all in preflop holding {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} and was racing against the {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} of Robert Petronnio, who was sitting on a big stack. The {j-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{a-Hearts} flop delivered Petronnio the lead with a pair of aces, and he never relinquished it as the {2-Diamonds} and {Q-Hearts} appeared on the turn and river respectively.
