Blake Whittington was just eliminated in a hand where he called off his stack for less than a three-bet all in from Wai Ngai, who was in the small blind and had shoved over an open by the player on the button.
Blake Whittington:
Wai Ngai: 
Whittington was way out in front and poised for a double until the flop came 
. All of a sudden, he found himself needing to fade over one-third of the deck in order to stay alive. The turn 
left him with just three queens to hit Broadway, and he was unable to fill up as the river hit the felt.
