Palmer Crippled

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

After player opened for 5,800, Zane Palmer moved all in for 43,100. When action reached Pierre Armster in the small blind, he called off for 36,500 and the original raiser folded.

Armster: {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}
Palmer: {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}

Palmer was left shaking his head upon discovering his pocket pair was dominated, while a nervous Armster was up on his feet. The {q-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} flop no doubt soothed his nerves, but the {J-Hearts} turn gave him a sweat as Palmer picked up a gutshot straight draw. Fortunately for Armster, it didn't come in as the {A-Diamonds} blanked on the river.

"Oh, that hurts," a crestfallen Palmer said after the hand.
