Block Busts for a Second Time

Level 4 : 100/200, 0 ante

Things aren't going well for Rick Block here on Day 1 of the Main Event. Earlier he busted after turning a second-best straight, and now he's hit the rail a second time courtesy of Tracy Rouse.

We missed the action, but we do know Block got his stack of 18,600 all in on a {6-Spades}{3-Hearts}{10-Hearts} flop holding the {5-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}. Rouse was out in front with the {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}, but she fell behind when the dealer burned and turned the {5-Clubs}. Block managed to hit two pair, but his lead was short lived as the {6-Hearts} spiked on the river to counterfeit him.

With 15 minutes remaining for reentries, Block has decided to fire a third bullet.
