Jimmy Fricke Goes Bust

Just a few hands after losing a big pot, Jimmy Fricke gave up the rest of his chips to Danny Illingworth.

Fricke raised to 3,500 from the cutoff and was called by the button before Illingworth re-raised to 13,000 from the small blind. Fricke shoved, the button folded and we went heads up to the flop.

Fricke: {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}
Illingworth: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}

When the board ran {5-Spades}{4-Spades}{K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}, Fricke went to the rail. Illingworth now has 205,000.
