Kevin Albers Eliminates James Scott
Oct 25, '08
Kevin Albers had whittled James Scott down to roughly $2,500 in chips, about 25 big blinds at the current $50-$100 blind levels. The two players got the money all-in preflop with Albers' A-3 offsuit ahead of Scott's K
4. The flop gave Albers a sweat, bringing the A106
, but the turn and river brought blanks and Alber's pair of aces were enough to send Scott to the rail. Scott took home $3,725 for his efforts.
