Binger vs. Estes

Some players do not want to pause for a dinner break. Because Michael Binger is on a short stack, he and Danny Estes are two of those players.

Binger was crippled after a flip where he held {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs} against Estes' {3-Diamonds}{3-Spades}.

The {K-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{3-Clubs} flop put Estes in a commanding lead, and the {9-Diamonds} on the turn changed nothing. The {A-Spades} on the river just rubbed salt into Binger's wounds as he was left with just 7,000 chips.

Two hands later Binger open shoved for 6,150 and Estes called with {Q-Clubs}{2-Clubs}. Binger opened {K-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} and the board ran {A-Hearts}{5-Spades}{10-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} doubling Binger to 13,000.
