Banks Running Out of Money

Further woe for Kirk Banks as he raised in early position and called a reraise from Ahmad Abghari on the button. Banks check-called Abghari's bet on the {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{8-Hearts} flop before both players checked the {3-Diamonds} turn and {5-Clubs} river - only for both of them to turn over {a-}{k-} and chop it up.

The next hand Banks raised under the gun and Terrence Chan reraised to his immediate left. Banks called and they saw a {2-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{5-Clubs} flop, which Banks check-raised. Chan called and they saw the turn.

The turn was the {j-Spades} and this time Banks bet out. Chan raised, Banks made the call, and they were at the river.

The river came down the {10-Diamonds} and Banks checked. Chan bet again, and Banks sighed.

"Ace king of spades again, not running good today," he sighed. "Not my day, I guess. Ace king three times, I lose twice and chop once. Jacks are good," he continued, and tossed in the call anyway.

Chan turned over not jacks, but {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds} and increased his stack to 340,000. Banks mucked and was down to just 39,000.
