After a flop of Heart 10Spade 10Spade 2 with about 45,000 in the pot, ClubWPT.com qualifier Moshe Nizan moves all in from the small blind for 87,500. James Hughes thinks for a while before he calls from the big blind, and Zachary Smiley quickly folds in the cutoff.

Nizan turns over Spade ADiamond 9 for ace high, and only running spades or running aces can save him against the Spade KDiamond 10 of Hughes.

The turn card is the Heart Q, the river card is the Club 10, and Hughes wins the pot with quad tens to eliminate Nizan in about 146th place.

James Hughes  –  235,000  (39 bb)
Moshe Nizan  –  Eliminated in 143rd Place  ($6,076)

It was a strong run for Nizan, who earned his entry by playing on ClubWPT.com, and he’s now on the books with more than $6K in main tour WPT earnings. This is the second time that Nizan has earned his entry into a WPT event, and he was also featured on an episode of ClubWPT’s King of the Club. Congratulations, Moshe!
