Guzzardi in Critical Condition

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Michael Guzzardi was the preflop aggressor, but Rainer Quel cleaned things up at showdown. Guzzardi opened with a raise that was called by Billy "the Croc" Argyros and Quel in the blinds. All three players checked the {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{8-Spades}

{J-Diamonds}

flop. On the turn {4-Hearts}

{4-Hearts}

, Argyros led out with a bet that Quel and Guzzardi both called. That took the three men to the river, which fell {10-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

. Everyone checked.

Guzzardi showed down first, turning over {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{7-Diamonds}

{3-Diamonds}

{2-Spades}

for a total airball. Quel showed {5-Clubs}

{5-Clubs}

{4-Clubs}

{9-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

for a small diamond flush. That beat out the Croc, who could only muster two pair with {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

{J-Hearts}

{A-Diamonds}

{2-Hearts}

. That loss crippled Guzzardi to just 11,000, but leaves us still searching for a bubble boy.
