Van Wyk Busts Bedford To Conclude Day 1a
Level 15
: 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
In three way action to the 10?7?6? flop, Jody Van Wyk bet 23,000 and was called by Thomas Bedford from one seat over while the table chip leader Anand Kumar reluctantly folded.
The 9? came on the turn and Van Wyk bet 28,000. Bedford moved all-in for around 120,000 - twenty big blinds - only to get snapped off by Van Wyk.
Thomas Bedford: 5?5? 
Jody Van Wyk: 8?8?
Bedford was all but out of the door as he needed an eight to chop. The miracle never came on the 2? river and Day 1a concluded with 16 players left. Full counts and a recap of today's action are to follow.
