Steve Michaels Loses His Last 5,000

[user108095]

After getting crippled earlier, Steve Michaels threw his last 5,000 chips into the pot from the button and Mark Salinaro raised to 35,000 from the small blind in order to isolate against the short stack all in.

When the two went heads up to the flop, Michaels showed {8-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

which was very live against Salinaro's {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{Q-Hearts}

. Live cards didn't help though, as the board ran out {3-Hearts}

{3-Hearts}

{5-Spades}

{3-Clubs}

{J-Spades}

{K-Spades}

, pushing Salinaro's stack to 590,000.
