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."
