Cooler Flop Sends Shimizu to the Rail
Level 5
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
With about 10,000 in the middle, the flop read 8♣6♥4♣, and Nozomu Shimizu was seen getting his last 15,000 into the middle against Elias Gutierrez.
Nozomu Shimizu: 6♦4♠
Elias Gutierrez: 8♦8♥
It was a nasty flop for Shimizu as his bottom two pair ran into top set leaving him drawing thin. The 6♣ fell on the turn, giving him an out for quads as he laughed and pointed at the six. The 5♥ river was close but wasn't what he needed as he stood up from the table.
