First Player Out

A player was eliminated after about ten minutes of play when he pushed on the turn with 5-5 against 7-8 on a board of 5-6-Q-9. The nut straight held when the river didn't pair the board and the player with the fives was sent packing. It's hard to know if a bit more aggressive betting could have chased out the open ended straight draw and kept this poor player around longer than a couple hands.
