The River is Cruel to David Peters

Before the flop David Peters raised to 10,500 and Ray Coburn moved in for his last 89,500. Peters made the call and had Coburn in big trouble with QQ against Coburns pocket eights. Peters led through the {7-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} flop and the {3-Diamonds} on the turn, but the {8-Clubs} spiked on the river to give Coburn the 185,000 pot. Peters' stack fell to 85,000.
