Song Hits The Rail

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

The action was picked up in a three-way pot with 11,500 in the middle on a flop showing {9-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}. The big blind and early position player checked to Stephen Song on the button who bet out 3,500. The big blind put in a raise to 10,500 and it folded back to Song who made the call.

On the {k-Hearts} turn the big blind sized to 15,000 and Song took a moment before moving all in for 55,000 total. The big blind asked for a count but quickly called and the cards were shown.

Stephen Song: {7-Spades}{5-Spades}
Opponent: {9-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}

It was a cooler flop with both players smashing the board. Song was in need of a seven to stay alive and when the river fell the {2-Hearts}, it was the end of the road for Song as he exited in the last level of the day.
