Level 30
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Daniel Rudd opened the button to 240,000 and Philip Joyce three-bet to 800,000 out of the small blind. Once the big blind folded, Rudd moved all in for almost 2,600,000, and Joyce quickly called.
Daniel Rudd: A?2? 
Philip Joyce: A?K?
Rudd had walked right into it, but there was still a board to run where he could improve. Although, not much help arrived on the 7?6?3? flop or the 5? turn. A four would result in a chop, but the 5? river meant Rudd was the first casualty of the final table.
