E-Fro Takes Big Hit

Level 20 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

We didn't catch the action, but when we came over to Eric Froehlich's table, he was counting out stacks of chips that were being handed over to Narendra Banwari. Banwari held {a-Clubs}{2-Clubs}, and the board read out {9-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{2-Spades}. According to Froehlich's twitter, he had flopped the nut straight, but it did him no good. With that pot, Banwari has vaulted up to 580,000, while Froehlich dropped down to 430,000, still above average in the room.
