De Melo: Going, Gomes, Gone
This has been a short and not very sweet EPT run for Fatima Moreira de Melo. She had a full house, as we understand it, but Team PokerStars Pro Alexandre Gomes seems to have hit a one-outer to make a royal flush. Now that is what we in the business like to call a bad beat.
Gomes was up to 55,000 after that, while de Melo was down to the felt. Her last few chips went into the middle a hand or two later and they never came out again, meaning that the Team PokerStars SportStar has a whole week to enjoy the manifold delights of this great city.
