[user75032]

Billy "the Croc" Argyros is a colorful character who is well-known around the Crown Poker Room. The local rooting interests are often with Argyros; he'll need more than good thoughts and warm wishes to make a comeback in this tournament. Argyros called a pre-flop raise to 4,000. On the {7-Spades}

{7-Spades}

{2-Spades}

{2-Hearts}

flop, his opponent moved all in for 6,300. Argyros made the call with {J-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

{J-Diamonds}

, but he was drawing thin against his opponent's {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

{Q-Spades}

. The turn and river did not help him, coming {7-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

and

{6-Spades}

.

Argyros is down to 3,100.
