Having a Bad Day

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Chris Day started the final table with a convincing chip lead but he's not having so much luck in the last half an hour.

First Sergio Aido check/called him to the tune of 6,300 and 12,200 on the flop and turn of a {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{2-Spades} board before both players checked the river. Day showed {10-Hearts}{9-Clubs} but found himself rivered by the Spaniard's {Q-Spades}{9-Spades}.

A few hands later saw Day raise to 5,000 preflop, getting called by Full Tilt Ambassador Dermot Blain on the button and Jan Przysucha in the big blind. It was checked to Blain on the flop of {Q-Clubs}{A-Spades}{6-Clubs} and the Irishman bet 8,200, Przysucha folded but Day called to see the {4-Spades} turn. Day checked a second time and Blain bet 16,600 on this occasion but again Day made the call. The river was the {Q-Spades} and Day led out this time for 38,000 - Blain tanked for a couple of minute but eventually made the call.

Day shook his head, showing {8-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for a missed flush draw and gutshot and Blain scooped the pot with {A-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}.
