Nancy Gets Birn-ed

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante
Nancy Birnbaum
Nancy Birnbaum

We recently witnessed Nancy Birnbaum's final hand of the tournament — at least for now.

The board read {6-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{3-Hearts}, and Birnbaum's opponent fired a bet of 1,900. Birnbaum raised all in for 5,900 total, and her opponent went into the tank for almost two minutes before announcing a call.

Birnbaum: {K-Spades}{J-Clubs}
Opponent: {5-Hearts}{4-Hearts}

Birnbaum needed to fade any heart, straight card, or card that would give her opponent two pair or trips — basically, she needed to dodge way more than she had liked.

The river was the {10-Hearts}, fulfilling her opponent's flush and sending Birnbaum packing. We're certain she'll be back for the second flight tonight.
