Marc Sander Drowns on the River

[user108095]

It was a small pot between Lupi Massimiliano and Marc Sander until we reached the river on a board of {6-Diamonds}

.

After the last card was dropped, Sander led out for 14,000 and Massimiliano raised to 30,000. Sander thought for a moment before committing the rest of his stack, and Massimiliano made the quick call, turning over {7-Clubs}

for quads.

While Massimiliano racked up his chips, which now total 119,000, Sander took a walk. He still has 17,000 left and we expect he'll return before they're blinded away.

Level: 2

Blinds: 300/600

Ante: 75

Dutch Boyd opened with a raise to 1,500 from the cutoff seat. On the button, Jeffrey Carris re-raise to 4,000, and only Boyd called.

The flop came {10-Diamonds}

, and Boyd led right back out with a bet of 4,500. Carris moved all in for 26,500, and Boyd made the call.

Showdown
Boyd: {K-Hearts}

Carris:

Boyd was in a bad spot, and the {6-Hearts}

and

that filled out the board did nothing to improve him. He ships more than half his stack over to Carris, dropping down to 20,000.

The

on the turn left Boyd drawing dead, and the river was a meaningless {6-Diamonds}

. Dutch Boyd hastily collected his belongs and stormed out of the room, not bothering to pick up his payout ticket as he made his way through the big double doors.

As he pulled in the rest of Boyd's chips, Carris could be heard singing, "It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas..."

Jeff Carris is a Hitman

[user108095]

Not long after eliminating Dutch Boyd, Jeff Carris took out another player on his table. This time, Carris mixed it up with Brent Bibby after a flop of {K-Diamonds}

Berkey Two-Outed Out

[user66118]

Jody Garaventa raised to 1,600, and Matthew Berkey moved all in. When it came back to the raiser, he called, putting Berkey's tournament life in jeopardy.

Berkey showed pocket kings, in great shape to double up against Garaventa's pair of jacks. The first four board cards ran safe, but a jack on the river would be the card that would send Berkey out of the field.
