Herrmann Hits the Rail
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Leonard Herrmann open-jammed for 4,900 from middle position and Yitzchok Vizel called from the hijack. Wallace Dawkins also called on the button and another player at the table said "Good luck...the best you can ask for is a triple up."
The Q♣8♦2♥ flop was checked by both non-all-in players to see the Q♥ turn.
Vizel bet 6,000 which was enough to see Dawkins muck and the players flipped their hands.
Leonard Herrmann: A♣4♣
Yitzchok Vizel: A♥8♥
There was no hope for Herrmann as Vizel had a pair of eights and also holding an ace. The 7♥ river was placed and Herrmann hit the rail in the first level of the day.
