The next hand, with no small blind, Steve Brite got it all in from the big blind for 46,000 with As8s against Brock Wilson’s Jc3c on the button.

The board came Qc10c2sAhAd — Wilson flopped a club flush draw and turned a gutshot straight draw, but Brite won the pot with trip aces to double up.

A round later, Brock Wilson was back on the button, and Faraz Jaka raised UTG+1 to 9,000. Mark Zullo called from the hijack, and Wilson reraised from the button to 35,000. Steve Brite moved all in from the small blind, and Jaka and Zullo both folded.

Wilson quickly called with QsQc, and Brite turned over AdKs. Brite needed to improve to stay alive.

The board came Jh7d6d2c5h, and the pocket queens held up for Wilson to win the pot and eliminate Brite from the tournament.

Brock Wilson  –  256,000  (64 bb)
