Weigel Goes Home

Michael Skender opened with a late-position raise, and Jens Weigel moved all in for another 145,000 from the small blind. Skender had the chips to call with {Q-Spades} {8-Spades}, and he did just that to put Weigel's {5-Hearts} {6-Hearts} at risk.

The {10-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} flop was a disaster for the all-in player, though the {10-Hearts} provided him nine outs to try and fill in his flush. The dealer would not save him though; the {2-Clubs} filled out the board, and that's the wrong color for Weigel. He's been eliminated, and Skender is sitting pretty right at the two-million-chip mark
