Calo Goes Bye-Bye

Frank Calo (during Day 5): busto
Frank Calo (during Day 5): busto

Ben Lamb has just moved up to more than eight million in chips after taking out Frank Calo in one of the first hands on the feature table after dinner.

The action folded around to Calo who open-shoved for 540,000 from the hijack position before Lamb called from the small blind. Erick Lindgren folded his big blind and so it was off to the showdown:

Lamb: {5-Spades}{5-Diamonds}
Calo: {A-Spades}{J-Hearts}

Lamb improved to a set after the flop of {6-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{5-Clubs} and sealed Calo's fate with the repeat {6-Clubs} on the turn. The river {8-Hearts} was purely to keep surveillance happy.
