Verspui Busts DeMichele

Level 5 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Mike DeMichele was riding a short stack for a long time, but his luck finally ran out, as he has just been busted by Robbie Verspui. We caught the hand as DeMichele was contemplating calling all in on a {k-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{10-Clubs} board. He held his cards, {9-Clubs}{8-Hearts}, practically face up in one hand and the rest of his small stack in the other. He threw the chips in, and saw that precentage wise he was in solid shape, as Verspui showed {q-Hearts}{7-Hearts}. The turn brough the {7-Spades}, giving DeMichele even more outs. But the river came the {k-Hearts}, and DeMichele never caught up. That table is now three handed.
