Worst Professional Poker Player in the World Eliminated

Level 20 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

In a five-way pot with the board reading {7-Clubs}{3-Spades}{5-Clubs}, Angelo Modica moved all in for 89,000 - almost 1.5 times the pot size. Robert Johnson called leaving 8,500 behind and everyone else released their hand.

Showdown
Modica: {7-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}
Johnson: {6-Spades}{6-Clubs}

Johnson was drawing to a four or a six and received neither when the turn and river came {q-Spades}, {10-Diamonds} respectively. Johnson was due to be the big blind the next hand, but because of an elimination at an adjacent table he had to move.

His first hand at his new table Albert Smith opened to 12,000 from early position. Johnson called all in, everyone else folded and the hands were opened.

Showdown 2!
Smith: {8-Clubs}{8-Spades}
Johnson: {4-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}

We unfortunately didn't catch the board, but we know that Johnson did not improve and was eliminated.

"Write in your blog that Robert Johnson is the worst professional poker player in the world," he told us after the elimination.

Don't shoot the messenger.
