Katz in Trouble Early On
Level 13
Stud Hi-Lo
Stephen Chidwick chopped with Freddy Deeb when his made low and an inferior pair could only chop.
One table over, John Monnette was scooped by Kristopher Tong and recovered some of the losses after.
Talal Shakerchi: XxXx / J♣Q♣4♥5♣ / Xx
Cary Katz: XxXx / 7♦2♦3♣Q♥ / Xx
Talal Shakerchi then took on Cary Katz and bet all the way. Katz called down but mucked when he was shown the A♣9♣6♦ for the ace-high flush by Shakerchi. That left Katz with 10,000 and he chopped his way to 28,000.
