: 2,000/4,000, 0 ante
Simon "BagelBites" Lam opened under the gun for 9,000 and only "Bobbybaldwin" called from the small blind.
The 
flop saw "Bobbybaldwin" check-raise to 55,000 after Lam continued for 11,000 and Lam called off his 54,071 stack.
"Bobbybaldwin": 
Simon "BagelBites" Lam: 
Lam flopped the goods but the 
turn gave "Bobbybaldwin" the nut flush, leaving Lam drawing only to the nine of spades.
Lam needed some real luck to stay alive but the 
river ended his tournament just a few players shy of the money bubble.
