Patrick Sacrispeyre raises to 5,200 and both Eric Froehlich and Cory Carroll makes the call. Thomas McCormick makes the call from the small blind and Lex Veldhuis pushes all in from the big blind.
Veldhuis had just entered the tournament today, so he held just under his starting stack, with 34,000. Froelich pushes out enough to get McCormick all in, and he calls.
Veldhuis shows [AhQh], Froelich shows [2c2d] and McCormick holds [QsQc]. The flop runs [7c6d4h] and the [3h] turn gives Veldhuis his flush draw, but the river bricks with the [Kc] and Veldhuis is eliminated in the first 15 minutes of his tournament.
McCormick sits with around 117,500 in chips. Froelich is down to 61,300.
