Varnado Sends Al-Shanti to the Rail
Niveau 22
: Blinds 8,000/15,000, 0 ante
Bryan Micon raised in middle position and Abdullah Al-Shanti called from the button for less, putting his tournament life at risk. Eric Varnado called from the big blind and all three saw a flop of Q♠7♠6♠.
Varnado bet the flop and Micon opted to call and see the Q♥ turn card. Varnado bet out again, this time getting a fold out of Micon and sending Al-Shanti and Varnado to a one card run out for Al-Shanti's tournament life.
Abdullah Al-Shanti: A♦10♦6♦5♠
Eric Varnado: A♠J♠J♥9♣
With no available low, the K♠ river was inconsequential and Varnado's flush was good for the whole pot, ending Al-Shanti's tournament run.
