The Bord-om of Pescatori

Max Pescatori raised from early position only to have James Bord three-bet to 2,400. A player in middle position then moved all in for 6,050, Pescatori moved all in, and the pressure was back on Bord. He was clearly unhappy with the turn of events and threw down his hand in frustration.

Pescatori: {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{7-Spades}
Opponent: {A-Spades}{2-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{2-Hearts}

The {7-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} flop was kind to Pescatori as it delivered him a set; however, the {6-Diamonds} turn gave his opponent a low and meant it was going to be a chopped pot, barring a deuce on the river. It ended up coming the {4-Clubs} and the two players chopped up some of Bord's chips.
