During Monday's Day 2 session in the $1,100 buy-in no-limit hold'em tournament, an odd flop appeared at one of the tables on the very first hand. The flop came out

Action was caught on a ![]()

First to act, Jason Adams raised it to 12,000 and Scott Baumstein called from the big blind.
Then, on a ![]()

flop, Baumstein check-called 10,000 to the turn
before he led 40,000. Adams raised all in for 142,000 and Baumstein called.

Those two players are probably going to split that pot, with Baumstein holding a straight, and Adams with the A-2 for the Lo. But Jason Adam just called for the only card which could make it scoop that pot.
"Seveeen", screamed Adam. The dealer put a

"Dealer, next hand please", said the tournament director on the microphone, "a guy called for a seven, and he hit it !"

After a raise in early position from Kevin Kerber to 21,000, Benjamin Miner announced pot for almost 75,000. Kerber tanked for a while before he called. Both players had around 50,000 behind.
On a ![]()

The turn
gave a straight to Kerber and Miner was drawing only for a chop pot for the low, or for an ace to win the high. But the river
was no help for Miner.
Benjamin Miner had exactly 47,000, against 50,000 for Kerber, and is eliminated. Two more players to eliminate and we'll reach the money.
