Nice Shootin' Tex

Nenad Medic started the action by raising to 6,000 from early position. Action folded to John "Tex" Barch who three-bet to 21,000 and Charles Sylvestre put in a fourth bet.

Medic decided to get out of the way and Barch moved all in. Sylvestre unhappily called.

Showdown
Barch: {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades}{10-Clubs}{7-Hearts}
Sylvestre: {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{J-Clubs}

The {4-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{A-Hearts} flop was terrible for Sylvestre, and he was drawing dead after the {2-Spades} turned. The {K-Spades} on the river poured salt in the wound and Barch was pushed a huge pot doubling him to 240,000 chips.

Sylvestre was crippled, left with only 22,000 himself.
