Brutal Bust For Lybaert

Level 5 : 150/300, 50 ante

Last year, Bart Lybaert was one of the highlights of the 47th World Series of Poker. Lybaert racked up 10 cashes over the course of the summer, including a second place in the $1,000 Top-Up Turbo worth $88,328. This year, Lybaert opted for a lighter schedule and arrived just a week ago.

Lybaert was down to his last 4,000 and a player limped in for 300, Lybaert raised to 1,050 with {Q-}{Q-} and the limper called. On a {J-}{9-}{4-} flop with one club, Lybaert's opponent led out with a bet of 1,200. Lybaert shoved around 3,000 and his opponent called with {10-Clubs}{2-Clubs}, uttering the words "I might get lucky."

Lybaert's opponent did get lucky, as both the turn and the river brought a club to crack Lybaert's pocket queens and send the Belgian grinder to the rail in brutal fashion.
