Ferguson Wheels One Out
Lots of pre-flop action at Chris Ferguson's table resulted in an increase in Ferguson's count to 13,000 and the elimination of a player.
One player opened to 700, with Ferguson calling behind him. The small blind then raised pot, to a total of 3,000. It brought the action back to the original aggressor, who moved all in for 1,700 total. Ferguson then potted himself, putting the small blind all in with a call. Finally, a reveal.
Player 1:
Ferguson:
Player 2:
Ferguson and the original raiser had very similar hands and were up against single-suited aces. The aces went down in flames -- and that player was eliminated -- when the board came to give Ferguson and his short-stacked opponent a wheel.
