Appleman Eliminated
Stud-8
Player: X-X / / X
Appleman: X-X / / X
Williamson: X-X / / X
Mickey Appleman was already all in by fourth street in a three-way pot of Stud Hi/Lo. His opponents were Robert Williamson III and a third player. Williamson bet his open kings on fourth street and was called by the other player.
Williamson check-called fifth street, sixth street and seventh street as his opponent's board showed a possible low and Williamson, himself, had no possible low. At showdown, Williamson's opponent called, "Straight," and turned up in the hole for a straight-six.
"I knew it," said Williamson with an exasperated sigh. "Kings up the whole way. I knew it, I knew it, I knew it."
Appleman just picked up all of his cards and threw them in the muck. "Thanks for playing," the dealer called out to Appleman's rapidly departing back.
