Aaron Massey Trying Again (and Again)

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

With a flop of {A-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}, Aaron Massey bet 900 after two players checked to him and they both called. All three would check the {Q-Clubs} turn. On the {Q-Hearts} river, the second player bet 750, Massey quickly called, and the third player let his hand go. Massey's opponent turned over {7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for a busted draw and Massey took the pot down with {A-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} to move his stack to 29,000.

Massey told us how he was on his fifth bullet and relayed how he had busted on his fourth bullet earlier this morning. "I had {K-Hearts}{K-} and opened and the small blind called. When I had sat down at the table, a player had told me this guy was a maniac. Flop comes {K-}{J-Hearts}{10-Hearts} and I bet 500, he raises to 1,100 and I called. The turn was the {8-Hearts} and I check-called an 8,000 bet. The river was the {5-Hearts} and this guy Hollywoods and slaps the table to check. I bet 6,000, he moves all in, I snap. He has {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades}."

Despite that setback, Massey seems to be in a good mood playing the game he loves.
