Fischman Busts Gold; Streak Stays Alive

Jamie Gold

Scott Fischman has just eliminated 2006 WSOP Main Event Champ Jamie Gold to move on to the Round of 32.

All of the money went in before the flop; Fischman's with {A-Spades} {J-Spades} and Gold's with the {Q-Hearts} {9-Hearts}.

Gold was able to spike a nine on the flop, but Fischman caught a jack on the turn to take the lead and he never looked back.

The win keeps Fischman's NBC Heads-Up cashing streak alive, though he's got to get past David Williams in the Round of 32 to make it an impressive five years straight.
