Fischman Can't Duplicate Seed's Feat

Scott Fischman's streak of four consecutive cashes at the NBC National Heads-Up Poker Championship has come to an end. He open-shoved from the button as the short stack with {K-?} {2-?}. David Williams found pocket fours in the hole and made the call. The board on the turn offered Fischman some hope -- it came {6-Spades} {8-Spades} {10-?} {10-Spades}. Fischman was he only player with a spade. He could improve to the best hand with any spade except the {4-Spades}, any king, any eight and any six. The river, however, was a {7-?}, eliminating Fischman one round away from the money.

Williams will face Eric Lindgren in the next round.
