Not easy being Patrick Fletcher today

Patrick Fletcher has a battle on his hands to stay in the PokerNews Cup. He's been short since virtually the start of the day.

Recently he began the trek back, moving over the starting stack for the first time in a while.

With the blinds heads up on a {6-Spades}

{6-Spades}

{9-Spades}

{2-Hearts}

flop, the small blind bet 625 and Fletcher raised him up to 1,700 from the big blind. The small blind called and they proceeded to the {a-Diamonds}

{a-Diamonds}

turn.

The turn saw the small blind check-call a 2,300 chip bet from Fletcher. They moved to the river {k-Clubs}

{k-Clubs}

with Fletcher firing out 2,700 over the small blind's check. Once again his opponent check-called and Fletcher showed down {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{10-Spades}

- good to take the pot down.

Fletcher now has 21,000.
