Bad Beat Sends Foster to the Rail

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

After Bob De Wolfe limped from middle position and Adam Foster raised to 13,000 from the small blind, Richard Burton shoved all in from the big for 52,000. De Wolfe folded and Foster, who had about the same amount in chips, snap-called.

Foster: {a-}{a-}
Burton: {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}

Foster had the goods, and just as Burton was about to get up, the flop came down {3-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} to give him a major flush sweat. Much to the dismay of Foster, that flush came in when the dealer burned and turned the {K-Clubs}. The meaningless {J-Clubs} was run out on the river and an excited Burton was pushed the pot.

Foster was left with just 2,000 after the hand, which went in the very next hand. Foster was unable to win that hand, which means his Main Event came to an end shy of the money in 27th place.
