Great Scott Bombs Out

On the very last hand of the night, we lose last year's runner up, Kara Scott. When I joined the action, Scott (small blind) was facing a bet of 2,000 from Thomas 'The Bomber' Nolan (early position) on a {5-Hearts}

flop.

After a brief pause, Scott slid her remaining two columns across the line for the all-in check-raise. Nolan asked for a count (8,625), before making the call and showing {10-Spades}

. Scott had {2-Spades}

.

Although she had five outs she didn't expect, the {3-Spades}

turn was rather clinical, leaving Scott drawing dead before the {K-Spades}

river.

As Scott waltzed out of the arena, the room suddenly became less easy on the eye and the thought of watching a Scott-less last few days somewhat foreboding for this year's media. Bah, sweaty, bald men it is then.
