David Singer is down to just 400.

He raised in early position with {8-Spades} {8-Diamonds} and found a caller in the big blind. He bet out 500 on the {5-Clubs} {2-Spades} {4-Diamonds} flop and called the big blind's raise to 1,500; he then shoved the {3-Diamonds} turn to the big blind's check, and was disappointed to discover that the big blind was holding {5-Hearts} {4-Hearts}. No help from the {Q-Spades} on the river, and Singer's swan song may well be close.
