Altergott Scores Back-to-Back Eliminations
After Sam Trickett opened with a raise, Max Altergott three-bet to 55,000. Trickett responded by four-betting all in for what looked like 200,000 or so and Altergott made the call.
Trickett: 
Altergott: 
Trickett found himself in dire straits on the 
flop, but the 
turn kept him drawing live. Trickett needed another jack, but it didn't come as the 
blanked on the river.
In the very next hand, Altergott raised to 23,000 from the hijack only to have Jason Koon three-bet all in for 177,000 from the cutoff. Action folded back to Altergott and he thought for a minute or so before making the call.
Altergott: 
Koon: 
It was a flip, but the 
flop kept Altergott in the lead. The 
turn gave Koon some chop outs as a spade would give both players a flush, but it'd be the that peeled off on the river. It was a blank as far as Koon was concerned.
"Good game guys," he offered before taking his leave.
