Davenport Departs Before the Break
Action was caught with the A♦7♣4♥8♣J♥ board on show, with around 165,000 in the pot. Keith Johnson, with 173,000, checked. Erik Eisen bet enough from the button to cover his opponent and sent the Brit into the tank.
"I've got a very good hand here," said Johnson, as he tossed two time banks into the middle. He eventually folded, and Eisen scooped in a nice pot before the break.
On the next deal, Nikolai Mamut opened to 12,000 from the button and called when Sinead Davenport put in her last 95,000 from the big blind.
Sinead Davenport: A♠10♣
Nikolai Mamut: 9♥9♣
Mamut had a nine-high straight after the 7♠6♦5♠ flop and 8♥ turn, leaving Davenport drawing to the two final nines in the deck. Instead, the board brought in the A♣ and Davenport departed.
