Koo Dispatches of Hayes
Level 4
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Tyler Patterson got it started with an open to 1,200 from under the gun. Harold Pader made the call out of the cutoff before John Koo came along with a call on the button. Rutherford Hayes chose to risk it all with a jam for 15,400 out of the big blind. Patterson and Pader both folded, but Koo made the call to put Rutherford at risk.
Rutherford Hayes: A♥J♦
John Koo: 7♠7♣
Hayes needed to hit his overcards to stay in contention. The flop did not hit him directly, but it did give him outs when the dealer fanned out 6♣Q♣10♠ to give Hayes a gutshot straight draw.
Koo's sevens held on the 6♦ turn and the 6♠ river as Hayes was eliminated.
