Hand #52

Hand #52 - There is a dead button in seat 5, Friedberg limps from the small blind for 20,000, and Smith checks his option. The flop comes {8-Spades}{7-Hearts}{4-Spades}, and both players check. the turn card pairs the board with the {4-Diamonds}, and they check again. The river card is the {3-Clubs}, and they check again. Both players show Q-x, and neither kicker plays, so it's a chopped pot.

Hand #51 - Dr. Bruce Van Horn Eliminated in 6th Place ($36,779)

Hand #51 - Mike Spegal has the button in seat 4, Van Horn raises to 60,000, Friedberg moves all in, and Van Horn quickly calls all in for 100,000 with {K-Spades}{4-Spades}. Friedberg shows {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs}, and Van Horn will need to improve to stay alive.

The flop comes {8-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{3-Spades}, and Friedberg retains the lead with ace high. The turn card is the {7-Clubs}, and Van Horn loses a few outs (the clubs) to Friedberg's flush draw.

The river card is the {10-Diamonds}, and Friedberg wins the pot with ace high.

Dr. Bruce Van Horn is eliminated in sixth place, earning $36,779. The next player eliminated will receive $47,973 for fifth place.
