Bro, What Did You Do That For?

Eugene Todd is NOT happy, and it's not the mere fact that he's been eliminated. Rather he's most upset about the manner in which he exited.

Todd and Al Barbieri saw a {2-Clubs} {9-Spades} {7-Hearts} flop, and Todd was most pleased - he was holding {9-Clubs} {9-Hearts} for top set, and bet 16,000. Barbieri called.

The turn was the innocuous {4-Clubs} -- Todd reasonably put himself all in for 20,000. Barbieri called--with nothing. He had called on the flop with nothing. He flipped over {A-Clubs} {6-Clubs}.

River: {K-Clubs}

Suddenly Barbieri had the nut flush and Todd had a ticket out of the tournament. Yikes.
