Speir Going Down

Our Day 1 chip leader, William Speir, has now fallen into the danger zone with only 7,000 chips.

He was all in preflop against Roch Cousineau for a massive pot.

Cousineau had {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{8-Spades} and Speir had {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{8-Clubs}

The flop came {3-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} to give Speir trip kings and some hope, but the turn was an {a-Spades} to give Cousineau trip aces. It did keep the possibility of a low open but the river {j-Hearts} was no help and Cousineau shot up to 190,000.
