Alex Low Running Dry

Alex Low was quick to tell us that he polished off 27 beer while playing his first day and another 27 while playing Day 2. His run for the threepeat was cut short today when he raised to 25,000 from middle position only to have Michael Trahan re-raise all in for what amounted to Low's entire stack when he made the call.

Low: {q-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Trahan: {a-Clubs}{j-Hearts}

Low was behind from the start and things only got worse with when the flop came {6-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}, pairing Trahan's ace. The turn of {6-Clubs} was no help and the {a-Diamonds} on the river sealed Low's fate.

Low hung around for a minute or two before shaking off the loss, saying "Well, let's get some money."
