Cremniter Leaves Table After Bad Beat Hand

Level 6 : 100/200, 25 ante

We came up and saw that Simon Cremniter was not in his seat. The reason for that was a bad beat that could very well made him steam and take a walk. He had made a big raise after quite some action by Philippe Bourgoin. Cremniter's opponent took some time before moving all in. Cremniter called and Bourgoin showed his {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}. The table described Cremniter as slowly showing what was {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}.

Cremniter got up from his chair and left the area as he saw the board run out {k-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}. He was not out but the pot was very sizable. We did see him return about five minutes later but he will have to grind his stack to what it was as he went down to 6,000 after that hand.

Gates Gets a Present

Level 6 : 100/200, 25 ante

The player op the button opened to 450 and the small blind made it 1,050. Garry Gates in the big blind made it 2,150 to go with {A-}{A-Spades}. The player on the button folded but the small blind had other plans. He pushed all in for 10,000 and Gates made an easy call. Gates was up against {A-}{6-Spades} and all though the small blind made a straight on the river, Gates rivered a flush to double up to 20,000.
