Level 17 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Andrew Hoechstetter limped from under the gun and Rishi Mehra raised to 35,000 on the button. Action folded back to Hoechstetter, who moved all in for approximately 200,000. Mehra called all in for a bit less and a showdown was held.

Rishi Mehra: A♦K♦All in
Andrew Hoechstetter: 10♥10♦

It was another race, but this one favored Hoechstetter as the 8♣4♥10♠7♥3♦ runout improved him to a set to eliminate Mehra early on in Day 2.
