According to 2004 WSOP Main Event Champion Grey Raymer (via Twitter), an unfortunate couple hands led to his elimination about an hour ago.
Raymer's downfall began when he lost 65,000 chips with pocket tens against pocket sixes after a six fell on the river to give his opponent a set.
In the very next hand, a player in early position raised to 9,500, a player in middle position called, and Raymer moved all in for 84,000 from the small blind. The big blind folded, and the initial raiser re-shoved. The remaining player folded, and they showed down.

Raymer was in good shape to double up, but the 
flop put that dream to rest. The 
turn and the 
river changed nothing, and Raymer's run in the Main Event was cut short.
On Twitter, Raymer shared his feelings about the turn of events: "Just a devastating pair of hands. Oh, what might have been."
