Raskin Done in by Liu

Level 3 : 300/600, 0 ante
Micah Raskin
Micah Raskin

Micah Raskin is known as a go-big-or-go-home player, and today it ended up being the latter result.

Raskin was down to his last 400 when he moved in from middle position. The players in the hijack and cutoff called, J.J. Liu did the same from the small blind and then the big raised it up. Three calls followed and a side pot was created.

All four active players checked the {4-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{8-Spades} flop and the dealer burned and turned the {6-Hearts}. Liu was first to act and bet 600, the big blind immediately raised to 1,200 and both the hijack and cutoff folded. Liu took a moment before three-betting to 1,800 and the big blind snap-folded. Liu tabled the {6-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} for trips, and Raskin was in trouble with his {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}.

"Bink," Raskin quipped as the dealer put out the river. It was the {K-Clubs}. Raskin couldn't bink a ten and was eliminated from the tournament.
