Long Walk for Patros

[user75032]

Behnam Patros was one of the early chip leader's today, but it's not about how many chips you have in the middle of the day. It's about how many you have at the end of the day.

Patros won't be seeing the end of the day. He put his last 1,300 in the middle preflop and was called by the big blind. Patros had {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

and was outkicked by one pip when his opponent showed {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{9-Hearts}

. A board of {4-Spades}

{4-Spades}

{7-Diamonds}

{6-Spades}

{A-Clubs}

{9-Spades}

ensured there would be no chop. The big blind's aces and nines took the pot and eliminated Patros.
