Crain Spotted Leaving The Tournament With No Ladies

Things got a little quieter here in the tournament room, and that's about the time we noticed the affable Eric Crain was gone. A quick check of his Facebook shed some light on his demise:

"Got coolered in one massive pot biggest donk at table then he finished me off with flush draw + over card vs my top pair. Pretty frustrating day. Same guy jammed 86o vs AA on T42 and went running 35 to build stack, then he coolers me (AA vs AQ on A high flop) then busts me with FD. Super obnoxious. Guess I'll have to get even playing the side events."

Waxman Climbing

Mohsin Charania and Matt Waxman were in action on the {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{8-Spades} flop in a single-raised pot. Charania was first, and he led for 2,300. Waxman called.

The turn brought the {9-Diamonds}, and Charania checked. Waxman fired 3,600, and Charania made the call.

The {10-Spades} completed the board on the river, and Charania checked. Waxman bet 15,000, and Charania folded.

Crowe Doubles Through Ivey

Jason Somerville filled us in on the details of Owen Crowe doubling through Phil Ivey.

Ivey opened preflop and was raised by Crowe form the next seat. Action folded back to Ivey who called, resulting in an {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{5-Clubs} flop. A check from Ivey led to a bet of 6,000 by Crowe, which Ivey popped to 17,000. Crowe re-raised all in and Ivey called with {K-Clubs}{Q-}. Crowe had a lot of outs to fade with his {A-}{A-}.

The {6-Clubs} hit the turn to give Ivey a flush, but a {5-} landed on the river to fill Crowe up.

"Enjoy Your Water"

When we reached the table, the board was completed {7-Spades}{a-Spades}{10-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{9-Clubs}. Eric Crain led out for 25,000 into a pot of about 60,000, and Simon Higgins slid out enough chips to put Crain all in.

"What is going on?" Crain exclaimed.

After about a minute in the tank, he folded. He then offered Higgins a drink if he showed his hand. Higgins obliged, tabling {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts} for a set of aces.

"COCKTAILS!" Crain shouted. "I need seven drinks...for me!"

The players at the table laughed, and George Lind interjecting, saying that showing the hand was worth a drink.

"Yeah," Crain added, looking at Higgins. "Enjoy your water."
