Peters Rivered to the Rail by Nevius

Level 2 : 75/150, 25 ante

From under the gun, Steve Nevius opened to 500 only to have PokerNews Editor-in-Chief Donnie Peters three-bet from the hijack to 1,400.

Nevius called and checked the {9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{4-Clubs} flop to Peters who continued for 2,600. Nevius responded with a check-raise all-in and Peters called all-in for roughly his final 10,500.

Peters: {K-Clubs}{K-Spades}
Nevius: {Q-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}

With Peters in great shape with his overpair, the {10-Diamonds} on the turn gave Nevius additional outs to a gutshot straight draw as now any queen, jack or nine would give him the pot.

Unfortunately for Peters, the river would fall the {Q-Spades} and he would be sent to the rail as Nevius moved to roughly 42,500 in chips after knocking out a player earlier in the day.
