Alexander Greenblatt Goes Splat

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

With the eliminations coming fast and furious early on Day 3, we caught the tail end of Andrew Greenblatt's bustout hand.

He held the {A-}{Q-} against Gary Friedlander's {9-Clubs}{10-Clubs}, and with the flop reading {2-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{9-Spades}, Greenblatt was in bad shape. When the turn brought a {Q-Clubs} to the board, Greenblatt was given a short lifeline, and he called out for another queen to materialize.

River: {J-Diamonds}

Paint came on fifth street, but Friedlander's trip nines retained their lead, sending Greenblatt to the cashier's cage along with the dozens of other players who have busted already.
