Four Ducks For Weinberg
Level 8
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
The flop read 2?5?2? with three players in a hand. The first player to act bet 5,000, big stack Nicholas Sims called. Jeffrey Weinberg came over the top and jammed all in for about 55,000. The first player folded and Sims called.
Jeffrey Weinberg: Ax2x 
Nicholas Sims: 4?3?
Weinberg was ahead and would need to fade the straight. He did far more than fade as the turn came the 2? to sew it up for him right there with quad fours to make the river meaningless and give him an important double while Sims was left to rue what could have been a huge stack in his clutches.
