The Abacus Down for the Count

Michel Abecassis
Michel Abecassis
Michel "The Abacus" Abecassis got his remaining 9,200 in the middle before the flop, calling a reraise from Daniel Negreanu that set him all in. Negreanu turned up {A-Clubs} {K-Diamonds}, dominating Abecassis' {K-Spades} {Q-Clubs}. No help for him as the board ran out {K-Clubs} {7-Clubs} {6-Spades} {10-Diamonds} {5-Spades} and The Abacus hit the rail.

Meanwhile, Negreanu is up to 36,500.
