Fager on Fumes

Scott Bergman raised to 12,800 from UTG, Steven Fager moved all in for 35,200, Joseph O'Neil called all in for 33,600 and Bergman folded.

O'Neil {K-Hearts} {K-Spades}

Fager {J-Spades} {J-Clubs}

The board ran out {10-Clubs} {9-Hearts} {3-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} and O'Neil took it down, increasing his stack to 90,000 and crippling Fager to only 1,600.

Fager was all in on the next hand. The small blind called, Bergman moved all in for 24,000 from the big blind and the small blind folded.

Fager {Q-Hearts} {J-Hearts}

Bergman {9-Clubs} {9-Spades}

The flop was {8-Hearts} {5-Hearts} {5-Clubs}, Bergman's nines still in the lead, but Fager picked up the flush draw. He made the flush on the turn when the {K-Hearts} fell. The river was the {6-Diamonds} and Fager survived. He's still on fumes, though with only 7,000 in chips.
