Fohrenbach Fails to Hang On

Level 4 : 75/150, 0 ante

After the flop of {q-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{3-Clubs}, Ricky Fohrenbach checked from the big blind and the player in the hijack bet 300. Fohrenbach then went all in for a total of 1,150 and the hijack called.

Fohrenbach: {10-Spades}{9-Spades}
Hijack: {a-Spades}{10-Clubs}

Fohrenbach's pair of nines was second best and the {a-Diamonds} on the turn and {3-Hearts} on the river couldn't save him so he headed to the rail while his opponent raked in the pot.
