If a Hastings Falls to a Forrest...

Limit Hold'em:

Brian Hastings was all in preflop after some three-way betting action between himself, Nikolay Evdakov, and Ted Forrest. The flop came {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}, and Evdakov checked from the small blind. In the big blind, Forrest bet, and one bet was enough to chase Evdakov out of the pot. Time to flip 'em. Hastings showed {4-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}, but Evdakov's {a-Spades}{j-Spades} had him in bad shape. The {8-Hearts} turn and {5-Hearts} river were no help, and Hastings hit the rail. Forrest is sitting on around 160,000.
