Rodney Brown Eliminated in 2nd Place ($191,618)

Level 28
Rodney Brown
Rodney Brown

PLO

Rodney Brown raised to 100,000 on the button and Mitch Schock made it 300,000 in the big blind. Brown made the call to see a flop of {10-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{5-Clubs}. Schock bet out 400,000 and Brown repotted all in and Brown wasted little time in making the call.

Brown: {A-Spades}{10-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}
Schock: {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}

Both had huge hands, Brown was holding top pair and a straight draw against Schock's aces and the nut flush draw for a pot that was well over the 2 million mark.

The turn was the {6-Clubs} and as simple as that, it was all over as Schock fist-pumped making the nut flush. The {9-Hearts} river was academic and Brown, who had less than a couple of hours ago been one card away from winning the bracelet, was now out in second place and will no doubt be bitterly disappointed. He will have over $190,000 as a consolation prize however.
