Lagan Runs Into Aces
Level 4
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Paul Lagan shoved all in from under the gun for 21,500 on what was a six-handed table. Sonny Franco asked how much before placing in a call from the button. The rest of the table folded to leave two players to flip their cards, with Lagan at risk.
Paul Lagan: A♠7♠ 
Sonny Franco: A♥A♦
Lagan sighed as he saw what he was up against. He did find a glimmer of hope as the flop came 5♠3♠2♣ to give him the nut flush draw. That hope faded as the turn came the K♦ and river the J♣. Franco held with his aces. He won the pot and Lagan was eliminated.
Meanwhile, Mulder has jumped back into the competition after busting out moments before.
