Topol Taken Out

Level 20 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

We reported earlier that Stanley Topol got crippled after Jonathan Spinks sucked out on him. Well he got the rest of his short stack in preflop, and James Routos was the only player who came along for the ride. This time, it was Topol who was dominated and needed a three outer to survive.

Topol: {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Routos: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

The flop provided Topol with no help, coming {8-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}. The turn came the {8-Diamonds}, and the river brought the {9-Hearts}. Topol headed to the rail, while Routos strengthened his chances of making it through to tomorrow.
