Gooch Leaves His Beer Behind

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Short-stacked Jason Gooch moved all in preflop for around 450,000 and was called by Ryan Van to put him at risk.

Jason Gooch: Q?Q?
Ryan Van: A?9?

"I haven't had a drink all day and I take one sip of beer and wake up with queens, it's crazy," Gooch commented as the dealer prepared the cards.

Unfortunately for Gooch, the flop immediately spelt disaster as it came A?7?4? to give Van the upper hand. No queens appeared on the runout of 3?3? and Gooch was headed to the exit, purposefully leaving his bad luck beer behind.

Cedrric 'Poker Traveler' Trevino had made it 450,000 to go preflop and then Jason Fitzpatrick moved all in. Trevino quickly called to put him at risk and the cards were on their backs.

Jason Fitzpatrick: A?2?
Cedrric Trevino: A?K?

Fitzpatrick needed some help to stay alive in this spot, but the deck was not his friend as it came Q?7?6?5?4? for Trevino's ace-king to scoop the pot, eliminating Fitzpatrick.

On a heads-up flop of 2?A?4?, Abdul Al moved all in and Jerry Yen made the call to put him at risk.

Abdul Al: 6?8?
Jerry Yen: J?10?

"Wow," Al sighed as he realized he was in bad shape with a worse flush draw.

Burchfield Busts with Kings

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Kris Burchfield
Kris Burchfield

After an open to 25,000 and a call from Ghadi Akari, short-stacked Kris Burchfield raised to all but one chip. The original raiser folded and Akari moved all in, to force that last chip into play, which Burchfield quickly tossed in to put himself at risk.

Kris Burchfield: K?K?
Ghadi Akari: 9?10?

Burchfield was in a great spot to double here with his kings, but the flop of 3?6?7? was not ideal as it gave Akari a ton of outs with a straight and flush combo draw.

The turn 5? was safe, but the river A? was the dagger that gave Akari a flush and Burchfield was sent to the payout desk.
