Event 10 (Flight 1G): Green Gets Knocked Down

Event 10 ($60 No Limit Hold'em $50,000 Guarantee)
Level 17 (Blinds 3,000/6,000/500)
Total Flight 1G Entries: 170

Total Event 10 Entries: 946
Flight 1G Players Remaining: 31

Aaron Shefter's pocket queens helped him leap up the leaderboard, while knocking down Vince Green

Vince Green has been extremely active since grabbing a massive flight chip lead, but he's currently trending downward at a steady pace.  After losing a handful of pots, Green and Aaron Shefter saw a flop heads up, with over 60,000 in the pot before the flop was dealt.  After the A 9♠ 2♣ flop, both players checked, and followed with the same action after the K on the turn.

The board would pair on the river with the K♠, and this time, Green would put forward a bet of 35,000.  Shefter collected the chips for a call, shaking his head back and forth while he was thinking, as if he felt he was just giving chips away.  He would eventually make the call, and Green would immediately put his hand in the muck.  Shelter showed Q♣ Q♠ for the win, and raked in a pot worth well over 100,000.

Aaron Shefter - 165,000
Vince Green 160,000

Play is about to enter the final level of the flight, with the clock being paused at 10:000, and five hands being dealt before the bagging process.
