Pocket Rockets Send Baron to the Rail

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

As expected the eliminations are coming quickly, and one of the first to go was Isaac Baron.

He got his short stack all in preflop holding {a-Diamonds}{2-Spades}, but he was unfortunate enough to run into Josue Sauvageau who had woken up with the {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}. The {9-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{5-Clubs} flop left Baron looking for running cards, and the {6-Hearts} turn meant the only way he would survive was with a river eight for a chop. That didn't happen though as the {7-Clubs} peeled off instead, and Baron's day ends early.
