Blatt Rails Damelian

Level 8 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Dean Blatt
Dean Blatt

While Robert Damelian enjoyed a decent start to the tournament he has been on a downward spiral as of late, with Dean Blatt administering the coup de grace shortly after the start of the new level.

Blatt was the man initially driving the action with a raise from the cutoff, with a short-stacked Damelian moving all-in from the big blind. Blatt made the call and the players revealed their hole cards.

Robert Damelian: {8-Spades}{4-Spades}
Dean Blatt: {6-Clubs}{6-Hearts}

The {10-Hearts}{7-Spades}{6-Diamonds} flop gave Damelian a gutshot straight draw and Blatt middle set. Unfortunately for Damelian the {4-Diamonds} turn and {q-Spades} river were not enough to keep his tournament hopes alive and he headed for the exit, while Blatt stacked up to 80,000.
