Hughes Falls at the Final Hurdle

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

As play was wrapping up for the day, Anthony Hughes manoeuvred the remainder of his stack, roughly 14,000, into the middle versus Benjamin Ane.

Anthony Hughes: AK All in
Benjamin Ane: 77

The ace in the window was great news for Hughes, but trouble followed. The full flop revealed A74, leaving Hughes requiring running cards to stay alive.

The turn 3 sealed his fate, and by the time the 9 river was flipped over, Hughes was already out of his seat and on his way to the exit.
