It Eight That Bad for Boxell

Level 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

With the flop showing {q-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{j-Hearts} the player seated under the gun plus one bet out 900. Leo Boxell was in late position and moved all in for his remaining 2,950 in chips. The player on the button the raised it up to 6,200 applying the pressure back on the original better. He thought for a minute before open mucking his {q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} before the other two players tabled their cards.

Boxell: {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}
Opponent: {q-Spades}{10-Hearts}

Boxell was in danger of elimination until the dealer produced a miracle {8-Spades} - a one outer considering the eight of hearts would give his opponent a flush.

The {10-Spades} missed Boxell’s opponent on the river as he moved up to around 10,000 in chips.
