Hanel Sends Margereson Home Via the River
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Jaromir Hanel raised from middle position and Scott Margereson peeled from the big blind.
On the 8♣2♥A♣ flop, Margereson checked, Hanel bet 9,000, Margereson shoved for 12,000, and Hanel called.
Scott Margereson: K♠8♥ 
Jeromir Hanel: K♦Q♥
Margereson was well in the lead and just needed to fade three outs in order to survive.
"Maybe I should stand up," he joked.
The 2♦ changed nothing on the turn, but the Q♠ river paired Hanel's queen, which meant Margereson was eliminated.
"I knew it! Goodbye," said Margereson as he departed.
