Deroche Busts One, Shin Gets a Double
In the first of two hands, Peter Deroche opened to 8,000 and he was called from both blinds. On the 
flop, after a check from the small blind, the big blind put out a bet of 3,000. Deroche shoved, and the small blind got out of the way.
The big blind called, but ended up dominated. He was playing ten-deuce for top pair, but Deroche's kicker was miles better with 
. 
on the turn and river left Deroche with the best hand, and he sent his opponent to the rail.
In the very next hand, after a raise and a couple calls preflop, Michelle Shin went all in for 6,400, and she was called in two spots. The flop came 
and Deven Lane checked to the player on the button. He tossed in a bet of 8,000, and Lane got out of the way.
With the cards open, Shin's 
was in rough shape to the 
of her opponent. The turn changed nothing, but Shin jumped out of her seat when the hit the river.
"I'm so lucky," she said with a smile collecting her chips.
Meanwhile, in earlier action on the same table, Allen Alejandro busted from the tournament.
