Marcus Goes From Over a Million to Zero in Two Hands

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Daniel Marcus
Daniel Marcus

On a completed board of 6♣3♦3♣7♦4♦ with about 175,000 in the middle, Daniel Marcus had 150,000 in front of him from the cutoff. Katsuki Matsuoka then raised to 475,000 from middle position.

After a long tank, Marcus put in the call, only to be shown the 6♥6♦ of Matsuoka, who flopped a full house.

The very next hand, Matsuoka opened again to 30,000 second-to-act before Marcus three-bet to 100,000 from the hijack. On the button, Yulian Bogdanov cold four-bet to 180,000. Matsuoka quickly got out of the way before Marcus jammed for 550,000, and Bogdanov quickly called as the covering stack.

Daniel Marcus: A♠K♣ All in
Yulian Bogdanov: J♠J♦

It was a coinflip scenario as the Q♦6♥4♥ flop kept Bogdanov in the lead. Nothing changed on the 6♦Q♥ runout, leaving Bogdanov's jacks the best hand.

Marcus went from 1,100,000 to zero in two hands as he exits late in the night in brutal fashion.
