Endersby Busts; Hawes Doubles

Level 12 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Travis Endersby jammed the cutoff for 11,000 with the {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts} and Jake Mehmet called from the big blind with the {q-Hearts}{4-Hearts}.

"I'll take a chop," Endersby joked on the {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} flop and the {2-Spades} turn was a blank.

"I'll take the four," Mehmet replied and sure enough binked the {4-Clubs} on the river to send Endersby to the rail.

Soon after, the next all in showdown took place on table 14 and it was Charlie Hawes at risk for 104,000 against Nauvneel Kashyap.

Charlie Hawes: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}
Nauvneel Kashyap: {j-Hearts}{j-Spades}

The {4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{2-Spades}{5-Spades}{j-Clubs} run out gave Hawes a straight to secure the double.
