The Downfall of Steve Brecher
Level 17
: 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
Steve Brecher's comeback has come to an end. It happened when Vladimir Shchemelev opened for 12,000 from middle position and Brecher three-bet all in for 45,000 from late position. Scott Palmer then four-bet to 100,000 from the small blind and Shchemelev got out of the way.
Palmer: 
Brecher: 
Brecher's best chance of survival was to catch an ace, and he found one on the 
flop. Unfortunately for him, Palmer also found a jack for a set. The 
turn left Brecher drawing dead, and after the 
was put out on the river he took his leave from the 2014 WSOP Main Event.
