Chronis Squeezed Out

Chris Chronis Eliminated

Nick Haidaris opened to 3,500 and found a call in the small blind in Bruce Nguyen, before Chris Chronis squeezed all in from the big blind for around 33,000 chips. Haidaris then announced he was all in for a little more as Nguyen sighed and released (what he later said was pocket nines).

Chronis: {A-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
Haidaris: {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}

The board ran out {K-Spades}{2-Clubs}{3-Spades}{3-Clubs}{6-Spades} to make Haidaris the nut flush to more than double up and leave Chronis crippled with just 1,300.

There was no comeback for Chronis as a few moments later he ran his last chips into the quad kings of Bruce Nguyen and was sent to the rail.
