Crevcoure's Tournament Life Comes Down to a Flip

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Now that the bubble has burst, the in-the-money eliminations are beginning to mount.

In a recent hand, a short-stacked David Crevcoure shoved all in for his last 23,000 and action folded all the way around to Steve Verrett, who called from the big blind.

Crevcoure: {7-Spades}{7-Clubs}
Verrett: {j-Spades}{9-Spades}

Verrett's call constituted a big portion of his stack, so both players desperately needed the win. The {4-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{5-Clubs} flop kept Crevcoure firmly in the lead, and it even gave him a flush redraw. The dealer then burned and turned the {9-Hearts}, which was one of the few cards that gave Verrett the lead. The {4-Spades} river was no help to Crevcoure, and he was eliminated from the tournament in 44th place.
