Harder On Harder Times

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

We caught this hand developing on the flop. Christian Harder bet the flop of {3-Spades} {5-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} and Tom Carman called. The turn came {K-Diamonds} and Carman bet 20,000 can Harder called. The river fell {4-Clubs} and Carman bet out 45,000. Harder went into the tank, a call representing a significant portion of his stack.

He sipped his juice and then pushed out calling chips. Carman tabled {8-Diamonds} {8-Spades} and Harder mucked his hand. Carman increased his stack to 420,000 and Harder fell to just under 80,000.
