Joshua Norris Eliminated

Joshua Norris had been eliminated in unfortunate circumstaces. With all the money in the middle on a board of {9-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds} Norris held {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts} for a set of tens up against the {A-Spades}{Q-Spades} of Sebastian Segovia for top pair and open-ended straight draw.

They watched anxiously as the {8-Hearts} fell on the river as Segovia yelled "Straight! Straight! Straight!" as he indeed had made a straight to send a disgusted Norris storming out of the tournament area.
