Maxed Out

Fresh of their 40 winks, players have arrived with a renewed vigor, and seem hungry for action as we witness endless big pots. One of those was a three-handed affair which saw the early demise of Max Stern.

Stern: {K-Diamonds}{X}{J-Diamonds}/{K-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}
Richard Tuttle: {3-Hearts}{8-Spades}{6-Hearts}/{A-Hearts}{4-Spades}{9-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}
Andrey Zaichenko: {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{7-Spades}/{4-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{5-Hearts}

Fireworks exploded on fourth street, Tuttle leading, Zaichenko raising, and Stern three-betting to 1,800. Both players called.

On fifth, Tuttle checked, Zaichenko bet and Stern called all in for 1,100. Sixth and seventh both saw Tuttle check-call single bets before being the bad news: both his high and low were pipped by Zaichenko's pocket aces and low to the seven.

As a result, Tuttle is down to just 200 (and exited shortly after), whilst Zaichenko now boasts in excess of 20,000.
