Miles From Where He Wants To Be

David Miles is gone after losing a couple of big hands.

In the first Miles led 1,800 on a flop of {4-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{5-Hearts} flop and a player in late position came along.

The turn {6-Spades} had Miles as the aggressor again betting 2,600 which the opponent flat called. The river {3-Diamonds} saw Miles check to his opponent who took the lead betting 3,000. Miles check-raised to 8,250 and his opponent instantly moved all in.

Miles tanked for a little bit, possibly for show, before laying his hand down and dropping to 7,275 in chips.

In his elimination hand three players took a {2-Spades}{9-Spades}{9-Diamonds} flop for 1,900 chips each. Guillaume Sosnouski in middle position bet out 2,000 and Miles moved all in. Both of the opponents called locking the main pot.

On the turn {k-Hearts} Sosnouski moved all in and the small blind folded.

Sosnouski {A-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}
Miles {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}

The river {5-Hearts} was not enough to get Miles home.

Sosnouski drags a huge pot, while Miles hits the rail.
