Campbell Leaves Zeidman Short

Mike Patrick

Level 5

Stud Hi-Lo

Action picked up on fifth street with Cory Zeidman betting into Robert Campbell, and the 2019 WSOP Player of the Year calling.

Both players checked sixth street, then on seventh street, Zeidman checked to Campbell who bet.

Their boards read:

Cory Zeidman: //
Robert Campbell: //

With just over 15,000 chips left, Zeidman didn't have a hand he could call with and folded, putting him on one of the shortest stacks in the room.

Robert Campbell	67,500	7,000
Cory Zeidman	15,800	-52,000
