Ashby's Eights Lose to Demicki's Nines
Level 4
: 150/300, 25 ante
Richard Ashby was just spotted on Max Silver's direct left and we caught him raising right away as well. Ashby made it 700 under the gun and no less than three people wanted action, as the button, small blind and big blind called.
The flop brought out 
on which both blinds checked and Ashby continued for 1,500. Poland's Daniel Demicki called from the button after which both blinds folded, and the turn brought the 
.
Ashby bet 2,500 on the turn and Demicki called again.
On the river the 
hit and Ashby checked, followed by a pause and a check from Demicki.
Ashby showed 
but that was no good against the 
of his opponent.
