One Half of the Brothers Suelflow Gone

If you've taken a look at our chip counts, you may have noticed two gentlemen who share the last name of Suelflow. One is named Matt, while the other is Marcus, and yes, they are brothers. While both were going deep in this limit event and stood a chance of cashing, that hope was dashed with the recent elimination of Marcus.

It began when Marcus raised from early position and then called a reraise from the player in the cutoff. When the flop fell {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}, Marcus checked, the cutoff bet, and Marcus woke up with a check-raise. The cutoff called and the duo watched the {A-Diamonds} hit the turn. Marcus bet, the cutoff raised, and Marcus called off his remaining stack.

Cutoff: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}
Marcus: {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}

It was bad news for Marcus, who needed a nine on the river to stay alive. With his brother sweating the action, the {4-Spades} blanked on the river to send Marcus Suelflow to the rail.
