The short-stacked Hoa Ngo didn't waste too much time getting his stack in before Arnaud Mattern reraised all in for just over 6,000 from late position. Tony Mackay was sitting in the blinds and decided to give them both value by making the call.

Ngo tabled {8-Spades} {4-Hearts}, Mattern {9-Diamonds} {9-Hearts}, and Mackay {6-Diamonds} {6-Hearts}.

The board came {Q-Spades} {3-Spades} {2-Clubs} {6-Spades} !!! {A-Diamonds}.

The two-outer came for Mackay on the turn and he eliminated two players, helping his stack up to 21,000.
