Baldwin Backs Down Against Kuether

When we got to the table, Joe Kuether and Eric Baldwin were heads up on the turn, with the board reading {a-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{3-Spades}. Kuether had fired out a bet of 1,800, and Baldwin called, making the pot over 6,000. The river came the {8-Spades}, and Kuether assembled a bet of 5,000, and dropped it into the middle. Baldwin went into the tank for about 90 seconds before folding his hand, giving the pot to Kuether.

As soon as the hand ended, the table broke, and Baldwin was moved to the same table as Bryan "Devo" Devonshire. These two popular players are sure to provide a few fireworks before the day ends.
