Savage Savaged

Savage: not looking so healthy
Savage: not looking so healthy
Ben Savage has lost some chips to Milan Gurung after some heavy action on table 29.

The action folded around to Savage who limped in from the small blind, only to find Gurung raising from the big blind to 1,200. Savage reraised to 3,500 and Gurung made the call.

Both men would check down the flop and turn of {9-Hearts}{3-Spades}{5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}; Savage checked on the river {K-Clubs} but Gurung shoved all in, prompting Savage to fold.

After that hand, Gurung moves up to 25,000 in chips. Savage is in strife, dwindling on 5,500.
