Our feature table has just seen the elimination of Steve "The Bald Eagle" Zolotow. In the small blind and facing a 2,000 raise from a late position player, Steve went into the tank for a while. He eventually announced "all-in." The big blind folded and the initial raiser called instantly.

Steve showed {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

{Q-Diamonds}

while his opponent had {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{A-Hearts}

.

The board was bad for Steve, coming {9-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

{10-Spades}

{A-Spades}

, so he was looking for running queens or straight cards. The {4-Hearts}

{4-Hearts}

on the turn was neither and the {4-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

on the river was irrelevant.
