Will Ma Walks

Will Ma on the rail

Will Ma three-bet all in over a Neil Arce preflop raise, and once Arce made the call, the cards were tabled.

Ma: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades}
Arce: {J-Spades}{J-Hearts}

The flop of {Q-Hearts}{6-Spades}{9-Spades} saw Ma surge into the lead with top set, and leave Arce only drawing to running cards for a straight or Quads.

When the {10-Spades} landed on the turn, Arce would need one of the six remaining Kings or eights to make a straight that wasn't a spade.

Unfortunately for Ma, he will be unable to replicate his 2008 final table when the {k-Diamonds} was dealt on the river to see him hit the rail as Arce climbs to 260,000 in chips.
