Hastings Makes a Hasty Exit; Agarwal Finds Fortune
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
A short-stacked Brian Hastings called the shove of Pushpa Agarwal and a flip commenced.
Brian Hastings: A♠K♦
Pushpa Agarwal: 5♦5♣
The board ran out no luck for Hastings as it rolled 10♣6♥J♣9♣7♣.
Agarwal then went on to tell her table a funny story, as she had hopped in Event #83: $1,500 Short Deck without knowing the rules, in particular the switched hand ranking of flushes and full houses, as well as the way the ace worked both ways.
She did go on to cash the event and looked up the rules after the fact, making it a happy mistake.
