Potter Potted

JP_OSU's smile only lasted another minute.
JP_OSU's smile only lasted another minute.
Jason "JP_OSU" Potter raised to 550 under-the-gun, and after two players in middle position called, Steven Levy squeezed to 2,300. When it folded back to Potter, he four-bet to 5,375. Two more folds put the decision on Levy again, and after asking for a count of Potter's stack and thinking for a bit, he moved all in. Potter was well-covered and would be putting his tournament life on the line with a call.

The went deep into the tank, apologizing to the table. "I'm really not Hollywooding," Potter promised. "I know this is snap-call or snap-fold spot, but I did a weird thing this hand, and I have to think about it."

Finally, he made the call to see that his {A-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} was in bad shape against Levy's {A-Spades} {K-Diamonds}. The board ran out {A-Hearts} {7-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} {4-Spades}, sending JP_OSU home early. Levy is up to around 65,000. With Potter's exit, the table got slightly easier, but it's still insane. Bill Gazes and Jason Somerville are there, and Eric Ladny, Ty Reiman, and Levy are sitting in a row.
