Ray Pulford Eliminated By Craig Varnell

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Craig Varnell was having a chat with Ray Pulford about showing hands.

“I like showing my hands. I want to get more hands to showdown,” Pulford said.

Varnell laughed and said, “I can’t beat you guys when it’s all in pre. I keep doubling you up."

Varnell opened the next pot for 18,000, and Pulford called from the big blind.

The flop was {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}{3-Spades}, and Pulford check-called a bet of 20,000 from Varnell. The turn was the {q-Spades}, and when Pulford checked, Varnell moved all in. Pulford didn’t have a whole lot behind, and he called.

Craig Varnell: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}
Ray Pulford: {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts}.

The river was the {6-Spades}.

This was one time Pulford definitely wasn’t happy to show his hand, as the last of his chips were passed across the table.
