"Basebaldy" Strikes Out

Level 24 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Eric "Basebaldy" Baldwin moved all in for all but 5,000 preflop from middle position and was called by Shawn Puri in the cutoff.

The flop came Q3J and Baldwin check-called all in after Puri tossed in a single chip.

Eric Baldwin: 1010All in
Shawn Puri: KQ

Puri had outflopped Baldwin, who was drawing slim to a set or a running straight.

It wasn't meant to be, as the 6 turn nor 7 river changed nothing — sending Baldwin to the rail and the pot to Puri.
