Minieri In Trouble

Like a hobbit who has lost his ring, Dario Minieri is looking dreadfully unhappy.

Just now he was faced with a Q-J high board -- and when a second queen came on the river, he folded pocket kings face up. To his endless woe, his opponent showed him {A-?} {J-?}.

Not long after, he became involved in a hand with Ruben Visser. We caught up with the action on the river of the {10-Spades} {3-Clubs} {5-Clubs} {Q-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} board, when Minieri, possibly still steaming from laying down his kings, bet out 5,100. Visser smoothly moved his remaining 17,725 stack across the line -- and Minieri folded.

He's down to 13,200.

Visser, by the by, is up to 32,500.
