Krunk Purified in the Waters of Lake Minnetonka

Level 3 : 150/300, 50 ante
Robert "Uncle Krunk" Panitch - Eliminated
Robert "Uncle Krunk" Panitch - Eliminated

During the recent break Robert "Uncle Krunk" Panitch stopped by to inform us about the "worst beat I ever took in my life."

According to the man they call Krunk, he held {q-}{q-} in the hole and found a set on the {q-}{7-}{9-} flop.

Jean "Prince" Gaspard called a bet of 1,500 on the flop holding {5-}{6-} for a gutshot straight draw, which he filled when fourth street came {8-}.

Krunk says the money went soon went into the middle on the turn, and after the river failed to pair the board he was forced to ship about half his stack to the newly doubled Gaspard. Krunk was left with 20,000 or so after the bad beat, and within an orbit he was done and dusted, with poker's Prince beginning his descent.
