Blumenthal Fizzles Out

We found Eddie Blumenthal all in for his last 4,400, and action folded to Pat Kellogg, who called in the big blind.

Blumenthal: {k-Clubs}{10-Hearts}
Kellogg: {4-Spades}{4-Hearts}

"I've never won a race at one of these MSPTs," Blumenthal said, throwing up his hands.

The dealer began spreading the flop, revealing first the {2-Diamonds} then the {k-Hearts}, prompting an "ohhh" from the table. An even louder collective "ohhh" came when the third card was revealed: {4-Clubs}, giving Kellogg a set.

"See!" Blumenthal said, vindicated.

A {k-Spades} hit the turn, giving Blumenthal trips to keep him drawing live.

"Now, don't do that," he told the dealer. "Because you know you're not going to do it."

"Quad him up!" one of the other players said.

The river was a {q-Spades} though, and one of the most dangerous players in the field wished his tablemates good luck as he left.
