Hand 2
In the very next hand, Damien Luis open shoved from the button for his remaining chips. Alexandru Baron called in the small blind and action was on Adam Owen in the big blind. He asked how much the all in was for and after a couple of minutes elected to fold. The cards were turned over, with Luis holding 
and Baron 
. Meanwhile, Owen had shot to his feet and was shaking his head.
"Sevens?" asked Baron as the board began to be dealt, "Ace-Queen?" It seemed like the focus was on what Owen folded more than what the board was going to run out.
The flop came 
, and although the 
on the turn meant that Luis was open-ended, the river was the 
meaning the Frenchman was eliminated.
