Pescatori Perishes

Max Pescatori has been sent to the rail but not after putting up a valiant fight. Pescatori was first crippled in a hand where the chips went into the middle on the turn on a board of {K-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}.

Pescatori held {K-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{4-Clubs} for two pair and two flush draws but his opponent revealed {J-Spades}{10-Spades}{Q-Spades}{10-Clubs} for the straight. Pescatori didn't improve on the {8-Spades} river and he was left crippled.

Pescatori did manage a double up a few minutes later by flopping trip nines against Andy Black, but his comeback was short-lived as Pescatori was all in preflop against Dave "DevilFish" Ulliott.

Pescatori: {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}
Ulliott: {A-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{4-Spades}{5-Clubs}

The board fell {A-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{J-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} and Ulliott flopped two pair and improved to a full house on the river to send Pescatori to the exit.
