Brentnall Stays Alive, But Not For Long
Level 17
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Terry Brentnall moved all in for 107,000 on the button and Rick Burleson called in the big blind.
Terry Brentnall: A♥4♣
Rick Burleson: K♦J♠
Burleson picked up a straight draw on the Q♣10♦2♦ flop, but he improved no further on the 6♠ turn or 2♠ river and Brentnall doubled up.
Brentnall's new-found wealth proved short-lived, as the next hand he was all in again and up against Kevin Sickels in early position.
Terry Brentnall: K♣K♦
Kevin Sickels: J♥J♣
Brentnall had picked up kings and was headed to another double up until the flop brought A♦10♥J♠ to give Sickels a set. The rest of the board ran out 2♣A♠, and Sickels improved to a full house to send Brentnall to the rail.
