Irving Rice Eliminated in 10th Place ($40,121)

Irving Rice - 10th place
Irving Rice - 10th place

Gabe Costner made it 100,000 under the gun and it folded around to Irving Rice in the small blind, who moved in for 715,000 more.

Deepak Bhatti in the big blind folded, but Costner made the call.

It was that classic race.

Rice: {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}
Costner: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}

The title of this post gives you a little hint as to what came next.

Board: {9-Hearts}{7-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{2-Clubs}

With that, Costner moved up to 1,830,000, and the WSOP missed out on an opportunity to see its first ever father and son combo at a final table. Richard Rice gave his dad a filial hug, and following a swift decision to come back tomorrow and play it out then, we are down for the night.
