Pearced Through the Heart

Gary Pearce, well down from his earlier high of 10,000, moved in with pocket fours on a {2-Hearts}

flop. His opponent called, however, and tabled pocket jacks.

There was some excitement on the {3-Spades}

turn, which gave Pearce the straight draw, but the river came down the {5-Hearts}

to seal his fate.
