Somerville Busts His First Bullet of RIU Reno VIII

Level 7 : 300/600, 600 ante

Jason Somerville, the man responsible for Run It Up Reno and all its glory, has been nursing a short stack for a while.

In a recent hand, action folded to him in the small blind and he jammed his short stack holding {k-}{5-}. Adam Owen was in the big and called with {k-}{j-}.

"King-jack is better than king-five," Somerville explained. Indeed it is, and his failure to get lucky sent him to the rail.

The silver lining is he'll now be available to attend the Welcome Party at 6 p.m. local time.
