Hendrix Eight-Outted With One Card to Come
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Cesar Garcia opened in the cutoff and Adam Hendrix defended in the big blind.
Hendrix checked on the flop of 10♥Q♠8♣ and Garcia continued with a bet. Hendrix called. Hendrix checked again on the 2♦ turn and Garcia moved all in to bring a quick call from Hendrix, who had the effective stack.
Adam Hendrix: Q♥8♥
Cesar Garcia: A♣J♠
Hendrix had laid the trap with two pair and had his opponent drawing to just eight outs. But the energy drained from the table as the dealer put down the K♣ river, giving Garcia Broadway to deliver a crushing beat to the American poker pro.
