Razz

The first game at all tables is Seven Card Razz, and Konstantin Puchkov just managed to find himself a double up.

Konstantin Puchkov{x-}{x-} / {5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{x-}
Matthew Rasco{x-}{x-} / {2-Spades}{2-Hearts}{10-Spades}{6-Clubs}{x-}

On fifth street Puchkov got his last chips in and he turned over {6-Spades}{j-Spades}. Rasco made the call and showed {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}, and the Russian bracelet winner was in the lead. He caught the {7-Clubs} for a eighty-seven low, and Rasco was drawing dead. He caught the {4-Diamonds} and lost the pot.

On the next hand Rasco doubled up, and he still has a shot if he finds a couple more! Puchkov is also not out of trouble and remains to be one of the short stacks.
