Chris Ferguson's mission to echo his 2000 success has ended in failure. Down to around 5,000, he came over the top of the cut-off's open of 2,000 from the button, only for the small blind to offer some extra value (although likely a tougher hand to overcome) with a cold four-bet to 9,600.
The cut-off mulled over his decision before making the fold (
face up), thus leading to a showdown: Ferguson in need of er... divine assistance with 
versus 
.
"You could have just called," said the cut-off, and maybe he should have as the flop came a decisive 
. A 
turn was enough for Ferguson to rise from his seat, and as the dealer dealt an academic 
river, he was already heading towards the door, braced for the long and lonely walk through the Rio corridors.
