Cornoyer Sends Players to Day 2 (1K-LC)

Bradley Hall made the money but bubbled Day 2. Debbie Lee crippled him in a pip battle and Vincent Cornoyer finished him off.

With blinds at 10,000/15,000/15,000, Bradley Hall opened from the cutoff to 55,000. Action folded to Debbie Lee's big blind and she went all in for 179,000. Hall didn't like it but eventually made the call. He didn't like what he saw.

Lee tabled T♠T♣ as Hall tabled his dominated 9♠9♥. The runout of A♦6♦5♥6♠2♣ left Hall with just 38,000.

Hall was in the big blind a few hands later. 30,000 of his remaining 38,000 was posted for the big blind and big blind ante. Vincent Cornoyer opened the lojack to 40,000 and the table folded out to Hall so he could put his last 8,000 in.

Hall: T♦5♣
Cornoyer: A♥8♥
Board: K♥7♣4♠6♥6♠

Hall found himself with two live cards and turned additional equity with an open-ended straight draw. The board pairing river eliminated Hall on the bubble in 12th place for $960.

Weldon 'Doc' Thompson and Malik Orr both double bagged. Thompson and Orr will each receive an additional $5,000 bonus paid out tomorrow when they play out Day 2.
