Hougaard - way down

Jesper Hougaard has suffered a few setbacks -- he's dropped from over 50,000 to 16,500 in just a couple hands.

First, he doubled up EPT Warsaw winner Joao Barbosa. Hougaard was holding {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

, Barbosa was holding {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{Q-Diamonds}

, and a queen on the flop sealed it. Barbosa now on 47,000.

Then, a little while later, Hougaard found himself involved from the cutoff with a gentleman on the big blind. Hougaard bet the flop and the turn of the {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

{A-Spades}

{5-Clubs}

board, and each time recieved a call from the big blind. Both players checked the {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

river, and the big blind turned over {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{9-Diamonds}

to elicit a muck from Hougaard and take down the pot.
