Cheatham Sends Skimbo to the Reentry Desk
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Michael Skimbo was all-in from under the gun for around 30,000 on a board reading K♦4♥7♦. He was up against the covering stack of Harry Cheatham on the button.
Michael Skimbo: A♦5♦
Harry Cheatham: K♥Q♦
Cheatham had top pair, while Skimbo had the nut-flush draw. The Q♣ turn and 9♠ river were clean for Cheatham to win the hand and eliminate Skimbo.
"I'll be back," Skimbo told his tablemates before promptly reentering.
