THAY3R Back . . . to Starting Stack (Nearly)

We have finally found Thayer 'THAY3R' Rasmussen and unfortunately he had only 100 chips in front of him.

Why? The previous hand, three players flopped a flush - ace-high, Rasmussen's king-high and a queen-high one.

However, Rasmussen would more then triple the following hand to 840 when his {A-Hearts}{4-Hearts} cracked both {k-Clubs}{K-Hearts} and {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades} after he rivered an ace.

Two hands later, Rasmussen would push his stack up to 3,000 when his {A-Clubs}{10-Spades} bested {3-Hearts}{3-Spades} and {K-Spades}{Q-Clubs}.
