Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Stack construction and demolition expert Bruce Pace just hit the self destruct button again.

Fireworks between Pace and Michael Gigl were set of on the flop when Pace made it 9,000, Gigle upped it to 25,000, and Pace jammed for a little under 50,000 total.

Gigl snap-called with the {k-Clubs}{q-Spades} having an inkling Pace was on a heart draw. Sure enough, Pace had the {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts}. The {q-Diamonds} turn and {2-Diamonds} river were red, but not hearts and Pace's once healthy stack was sent over to Gigl.
