Hersh Strikes Out; Forrest Gets Revenge

[user38449]

Hershiser won't be getting any autographed baseballs this year...

Ted Forrest got his revenge against former Major League Baseball pitcher Orel Hershiser, winning their Round of 64 match-up. The two also met last year in the Round of 64, but Orel won that match and moved on to reach the quarterfinals.

This time around, a short-stacked Hershiser moved all in before the flop holding {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{5-Clubs}

and was quickly called by Forrest, who tabled {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{K-Clubs}

. The

{2-?}

{3-?}

{8-?}

{8-?}

{K-?}

board fell in favor of Forrest, blocking Hershiser's shot at another deep run.

Forrest will play the winner of the Scotty Nguyen v. Hevad Khan match-up tomorrow afternoon.
