Racener Sliding

Last year's Main Event runner-up John Racener has been having a tough go of it here on Day 3. While he began the day with a big stack, he seems to be stuck in reverse. In a recent hand, a player in the cutoff raised to 4,100 and Racener made the call from the small blind.

Racener then check-called a bet of 7,500 on the {10-Clubs}{J-Spades}{7-Spades} flop, leading to the {4-Clubs} turn. Both players checked that card, as well as the {9-Hearts} on the river. The cutoff rolled over {Q-Clubs}{J-Clubs} for a pair of jacks, which was good enough to win the pot. Racener is down to 52,000.
