Affleck Doesn't Get There; Loses Big One

Level 5 : 150/300, 50 ante

Matt Affleck, who made it to the final table in the 18,054-entry Colossus Event to finish in eighth place for $103,090, just lost a huge pot.

There were only four players at Affleck's table, and three of them, including Affleck, were involved on the {4-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{10-Spades} flop. Action checked to the button, who bet 1,000. The small blind check-raised to 2,500, and Affleck check-re-raised to 5,500.

The player on the button quickly mucked, but the small blind responded with an all-in, which was instantly called by Affleck, who had a strong draw with {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}. He faced {4-Clubs}{4-Spades}, the bottom set, and didn't get any piece of the remaining two cards on the board.

Affleck shipped 14,925 chips his opponent's way, leaving him with a big double. Affleck himself dropped below 12 big blinds.
