Spitzberg Cut Down Again

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

Robson Barbosa raised to 65,000 from early position, Chalie Hook called out of the small blind, and Paul Spitzberg defended his big blind.

The flop fell {5-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{a-Clubs}, both players in the blinds checked, and Barbosa continued for 115,000. Hook folded, Spitzberg check-raised to 300,000, and Barbosa tank-called.

The pair checked on the turn ({j-Hearts}), and the {8-Clubs} completed the board. Spitzberg checked a third time, Barbosa slid forward 550,000, and Spitzberg called.

Barbosa turned over {5-Diamonds}{5-Spades} for a set of fives, and Spitzberg tossed his cards into the muck.

After the hand, Spitzberg informed our reporter that that is the second time he's lost with {a-}{k-} to a set of fives.
