Hands #8-12: Howard Trending Downward
Hand #8: Nicholas Howard raised to 200,000 from the button, and Thomas Cazayous called in the big blind.
Cazayous check-called a bet of 155,000 on the 
flop and 550,000 on the 
turn. Both players checked the 
river.
"Straight," Cazayous said, flipping up 
.
"Shoulda jammed the turn," Howard told Cazayous, showing 
for a smaller straight.
Hand #9: Howard raised to 200,000, and Wojtek Barzantny called in the big blind. Barzantny check-folded to a bet of 170,000 from Howard on the 
flop.
Hand #10: Cazayous raised to 165,000 from the button and the blinds folded.
Hand #11: Howard raised to 200,000 from under the gun, and Angel Guillen three-bet shoved for 900,000 in the big blind. Howard tanked for around a minute before folding, to a chorus of "Vamos!" from Guillen's rail.
Hand #12: Howard got a walk.
