Rough Start for Racener

John Racener
John Racener

We picked up the action on the turn, with the board reading {10-Spades}{9-Spades}{6-Hearts}{3-Clubs} and 3,000 already in the pot. John Racener faced an 1,800 bet from his middle position opponent and decided to raise to 4,600 from the button. He earned a call, and the {4-Spades} hit the river. The action was checked to Racener who bet 8,500. His opponent called.

Racener showed {Q-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} for nothing but a busted straight draw and watched the majority of his stack shipped to his opponent, who flopped top set with {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}. Racener is down to 6,800 from his 30,000 starting stack.
