Juan Ferrer (Boisbriand, FL) chose not to three-bet his hand pre-flop, which may have helped disguise the strength when he went all-in.

James Tomblin was the most recent Flight 1A entry, and would be seated at Table 9.  Just two hands after sitting down, Tomblin would limp from early position, with Nigel Murray raising to 2,000 (next to act).  Murray's raise would be called in three spots, including Juan Ferrer in the big blind, and the original limper Tomblin.  Four players would see a flop of A♦ 9♣ 2♣, with Ferrer leading out into the field, with a wager of 9,000.  James Tomblin then shoved for the rest of his starting stack (about 17,950), with players folding around to Ferrer, who made the call.

"I just have ace-queen," Tomblin said to Ferrer, as he tabled his hand face up (A♠ Q♣).  Ferrer responded by turning over A♥ K♦, and after the turn and river would both bring sevens, Tomlbin would be exiting the table.  While James headed to the cage to re-enter, Ferrer scooped up the sizable pot, which brings him up to 55,000.

Juan Ferrer - 55,000 (110bb)
