Wasserson Squeezed Out

Over at Table 356 Eric Wasserson was in the cutoff and had called an all-in bet of 7,600 from the player acting under the gun. The player in the button decided to come along as well.

Before the flop, Wasserson asked the player on the button, "Got a good hand?" Before requesting "No side pots."

The flop came down {6-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{9-Spades} and Wasserson checked, repeating "No side pots." The player on the button was having none of it, though, and bet 30,000, leading Wasserson to fold.

Button: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Under the gun: {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

Wasserson seemed happy with his fold, but the Button could not have enjoyed the situation he was in. The turn and river didn't change a thing, coming {3-Spades}{k-Diamonds}.

Wasserson still has 51,000 chips.
