Taylor Loses Some
Oct 11, '15
A short-stacked player was all in before the flop for what looked to be his last roughly 5,500. Chris Taylor called and tabled JT. He was racing against the shorter stacked player’s 44.
The flop came down KK9, keeping his opponent’s fours in the lead. Taylor jumped into a commanding position after the Q struck the turn to give him a straight to the king. Unfortunately for Taylor, his opponent was able to catch back up after the 4 struck the river to give his opponent a full house of fours full of kings.
With this hit, Taylor’s stack has been reduced to about 62,000.
