Beisner Busts In Blind Battle

In a battle of the blinds, Matthew Beisner moved all in from the small blind, and Allen Carter quickly called with {A-Spades}{K-Clubs} from the big blind. Beisner sheepishly revealed {8-Hearts}{5-Hearts} for the steal attempt, but still had live cards.

The flop soon changed that when it fell {A-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{J-Spades} to give Carter a pair of aces. The {10-Spades} on the turn and {7-Clubs} on the river gave Carter the pot and eliminated Beisner from the Main Event.
