Hoenig Sends Out the Defending Champ
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Ryan Hoenig and John Fauver saw the turn on a board of 8♠10♥K♦6♦ when Fauver put in his last 10,000 from the hijack and Hoenig put him at risk in the cutoff.
Fauver showed A♠Q♦J♥7♠5♥, while Hoenig had A♦A♥K♠J♦9♥. Fauver was looking to complete a straight or low to stay alive, but he missed the K♥ as Hoenig improved to trips to send the defending champion to the rail.
