Andy Bloch Gets Quartered

[user108095]

Andy Bloch's short stack keeps going the wrong way. In a hand with Eli Elezra and one other player, Andy raised on a flop of {A-Hearts}

and got two calls.

After getting raised when the {K-Diamonds}

hit the turn, Andy re-raised all in for his last 1,700. Elezra tanked for about 30 seconds before laying down his hand, claiming he folded aces up.

After the river brought the {8-Clubs}

, the hands were opened and Andy chopped for the low, while his opponent took the high with two pair.

After the hand, Bloch's stack is down to 9,500.
