Hodge an Early Elimination

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante

Mark Hodge, who currently sits atop the MPST Season 6 POY leaderboard, was just eliminated from the tournament at the hands of Brian Hartner.

We missed his bustout, but Hartner explained that he had called Hodge's three-bet holding {k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} and flopped top two of the {k-}{9-}{7-} flop. He check-called a bet, and then checked the {3-} turn. Hodge moved all in, and Hartner made the call. Hodge tabled pocket tens, and failed to find a third on the river.

Hodge already told us he'll be reentering a bit later on looking to add to his POY lead. Here's a look at how things stacked up heading into the MSPT Golden Gates Casino stop.
