Weissman Gone

Joey Weissman

We do not know how the action went preflop, but we know some kind of raising went down between Joey Weissman in the small blind and Ken VanHo in the big blind. Once that was settled both players were witness to the {a-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{8-Hearts} flop.

It was here on the flop that Weissman bet out 6,500. VanHo countered by raising it up to 17,000. Weissman than announced "all in" for his remaining 65,000 and VanHo went into the tank. After a few moments went by Vanho made the call and cards were tabled.

Weissman: {K-Hearts}{9-Hearts}
VanHo: {A-Diamonds}{2-Spades}

Weissman needed any heart to fall on the turn or the river in order to snatch the hand away. The {10-Clubs} on the turn was not the answer, and neither was the {4-Diamonds} on the river.

Weissman was subsequently eliminated, and his hunt for bracelet number two came to a halt today.
