Out of the 2008 WSOP Main Eventby Shannon Shorr | Published: Jul 03, '08 |
The bustout hand was pretty remarkable, and I'll remember it for the rest of my life.
I had about 27000 with the average at 38000ish. This good online player named John (I think?) raised up front to 1100, kinda nitty guy called 1100, I called 1100 in the CO with K9dd, the SB called 900 more and BB folded. Flop 9s5d4d. John led out 3000, nitty guy raised to 8000, this was a shitty spot for me but it's obviously muck it or shove it. I went with it. Amazingly the SB went in the tank for two minutes then overcalled, lol. John folded and nitty guy now moved in over the top for a little bit more. Nitty guy showed black fours, and the SB showed me a heartbreaking 76dd which left me with just 5 live outs.
The turn was the Jc and river was the 4h giving the dude quads. It was a pretty poor day for the house as Cody, Adam and Mike are all out. Jerry made it through with an average stack. basebaldy will play Saturday.
Tomorrow we're getting a cabana at Hard Rock's pool. I'm not sure what my other upcoming plans are.
