Visser Vanquished

Ruben Visser
Ruben Visser
Team PokerStars Pro Ruben Visser was just eliminated after coming out on the wrong end of a short-stacked race. Here's how they called the action in the Dutch blog:

"Ruben Visser uitgeschakeld

"Ruben Visser was already pretty fast become very short. His left was the culprit when Visser in a ge-4-bet pot with top pair, both as a heat flush draw on the turn. On the river he was all-but put in and made the call but his neighbor had a geturnde flush.

"After that hand he had only about 4000 points since he just pushes the button to the center. Again it is his left that makes the call, this time with pocket fives.

"No help for Fisherman's bait-wife. After the run deep in the EPT of Vilamoura no successful follow-up here in Prague."

Got it? Okay, the short version of the story is that Visser was down to just 4,000 measly chips after losing a big pot. He moved in shortly thereafter with ace-queen (bait-wife?) on the button, and he was called down by a player with pocket fives. No help on board for Visser spelled an early end to his day.
