Licastro Going Down

Though his day began on the right track, Anthony Licastro has just been sent to the rail.

Sitting in the big blind, Licastro saw a player min-raise to 400 from middle position, and was the only caller.

The flop came down {4-Hearts}

, and Licastro fired out into the raiser with a 400-chip bet of his own. His opponent made the call.

Both players checked the turn card, {7-Clubs}

, and the

fell on the river. Licastro bet out 800, which was flat-called by his opponent, who showed down 8-8 for a set. Licastro mucked his holdings, and was knocked down to just 800 in chips.

He was eliminated a very short time later.
