Deuces Hold for Gorham to Eliminate Higgins
Level 18
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 0 ante
With only 30,000 chips remaining, Matthew Higgins raised all-in and James Gorham in the big blind called.
Matthew Higgins K?8? 
James Gorham 2?2?
The flop was no help for Higgins when it ran out 6?5?3?, however the 9? turn did give Higgins some extra outs. Now being able to hit a seven for a straight, to go along with a king or an eight. Unfortunately for Higgins, the river was the 10?, and the deuces held for Gorham, and he eliminated Higgins from the tournament.
Gorham will face the winner of the Michael Shi and Nikolai Mamut match, tomorrow in round three.
