Humphrey Heading Home

After a series of betting back and forth between Roberto Watanabe and Zachary Humphrey preflop, Humphrey ended up all in.

Watanabe: {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}
Humphrey: {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}

Watanabe hit not just one ace. but two right in the door of a {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades}{3-Hearts} flop. Humphrey desperately needed a 5 or a run-run straight to take control of the hand and secure his seat in the tournament. He received no such luck as the turn-river came out {3-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}. Watanabe won the hand with a full house aces over threes and is back to being around 150,000.
