Event 1 (Day 2): Tjin Left With Peanuts

Level 28 (Blinds 25,000/50,000/5,000)
Total Entries: 560
Players Remaining: 8
Chip Average: 1,050,000

Corey Kennel open shoved for 365,000 from middle position, and the action would fold to Rudy Tjin on the button.  After asking for a count, Rudy would re-shove for 505,000, drawing some thought from Josh Gordon in the big blind.  Gordon would eventually fold and it would be the A Q of Kennel against the Q Q of Tjin.  The flop of A A 4 would leave Tjin drawing dead, and while Kennel would chip up to 760,000,  Tjin would be left with two big blinds (100,000).
