Mark "Bud" Wiser
Mark “Bud” Wiser

Mark “Bud” Wiser raised under the gun to 31,000, Wilmer Chavira reraised from the cutoff to 62,000, and chipleader Davy Ridout moved all in from the button.

Wiser tanked for a while before he called all in for about 43,000, and Chavira quickly folded.

Wiser turned over 10d3c, and needed to improve to stay alive against Ridout’s QsQd.

The board came KcQc4s2c8h — Ridout flopped a set of queens and Wiser turned a club flush draw, but he improved no further. Ridout won the pot with his set to eliminate Wiser in sixth place.

Davy Ridout  –  810,000  (68 bb)
