Ausmus On Fumes, Eliminated Shortly After

Christopher Claassen opened in middle position and action folded around to Jeremy Ausmus in the big blind who opted to three-bet. Claassen made the call to send the two players heads-up to the initial draw.

Both players took one card on the first draw after which action checked through to the second draw. Again, Ausmus and Claassen drew one. Ausmus then led into Claassen who called.

Neither player discarded any during the final draw and Ausmus checked to Claassen who fired off another bet. Ausmus released his hand to leave himself with just 18,000.

A few hands later Ausmus got the remainder of his chips into the middle but was unable to take down the pot, sending him to the rail outside of the money.
