Lederer Flunks Out

Howard Lederer - Out
Howard Lederer - Out
The cutoff opened the pot to 3,500, and Howard Lederer reraised to 10,600. The small blind then four-bet it, making it 25,600 to play. That was enough to fold the cutoff, but Lederer would tank and call.

The flop brought {2-Hearts} {J-Clubs} {3-Diamonds}. The small blind bet enough to cover Lederer, and the Professor called all in for his last ~12,000, tabling {8-Hearts} {8-Clubs}. The news was bad though as his opponent showed up {A-Hearts} {A-Diamonds}. The turn {5-Diamonds} and river {K-Hearts} would be useless to Lederer, and he has been eliminated.
