Boatman Promises to Return
Level 3
: Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
John Howlett raised to 800 in early position and received two callers before Barny Boatman stuck in his last 5,000 from the big blind. Only Howlett called.
Barny Boatman: 7♦5♦ 
John Howlett: A♥Q♠
"That's no good," Boatman said as the cards were revealed. The flop came J♣6♠3♣ to give Boatman some hope with a straight draw.
"Any fours around?" he asked, but Boatman didn't improve on the K♦ turn or 8♦ river and was sent to the rail.
"Are you going to reenter today?" tablemate Maria Konnikova asked Boatman, who promised he would be back for another bullet.
