The board ran out 6K104A. Adler's two pair, aces and kings were good for the winner and he collected a decent pot while sending his opponent to the rail.

Hastings Fires Another Bullet

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Brian Hastings
Brian Hastings

A player in late position raised to 1,250 and Brian Hastings made it 6,000 from the small blind. David Uvaydov took a few minutes to think about it and eventually settled on a raise to 12,000.

The late position player folded and Hastings made the call. Together they saw the 685. Hastings checked and Uvaydov bet 12,050. Hastings went all in and Uvaydov made a quick call.

Brian Hastings: A4
David Uvaydov: JJ

Hastings had a gut shot and an over card but the turn and river were bricks, awarding close to a double to Uvaydov.

Hastings was left wondering where the closest place to register again might be and made his way to the cage.
