Becker Up and Out in Quick Fashion
Rachid Amamou limped first to act and Johannes Becker did so from the cutoff. The button min-raised to 4,000 and the big blind called, as did Amamou and Becker. On the 
flop all four players checked and Amamou bet the 
turn for 17,000, Becker called. The button shoved for 25,800 and the big blind let go, Amamou and Becker called.
After the 
river, Amamou check-called the shove of Becker for 23,900 with the words "I know I am behind, but I have to call."
Becker turned over 
for a full house, the button had 
for the nut straight and Amamou mucked the 
for trips queens.
However, only a few minutes later Becker was on his way out of the tournament area. Amamou confirmed he had felted the German with aces versus kings, Becker failed to catch a king or hearts flush draw.
