Backus Loses a Coin Flip
Level 21
: 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Matt Schurter opened in the hijack and Brad Backus re-jammed for 160,000 in the cutoff. Schurter called once it became his turn to do so.
Brad Backus: 
Matt Schurter: 
A deuce appeared in the window with an ace right behind it, smack dab in the middle of the flop 
. No nine appeared as the turn 
and river 
completed the runout and Schurter's aces up eliminated Backus in 40th place.
