Down Another One

An early bit of luck for Jorn Walthaus. Despite looking a little deathly after allegedly involving himself in some quantity-centric drinking games at the Pokernews party last night, he has knocked out Dmitriy Golovin already.

Both players seemed to be a little short already at the start of the hand, but nevertheless, Walthaus bet 350 on the {J-Hearts} {K-Clubs} {10-Clubs} flop and Golovin flat called.

Walthaus checked the the {2-Spades} turn and then called an ambitious 1,000 bet from Golovin -- Golovin left himself just 750 behind.

Walthaus checked the {7-Clubs} river as well, and then called Golovin's all in bet. Golovin showed him the flopped straight -- but Walthaus had made the flush on the river and Golovin's gone.

Golovin: {9-Spades} {Q-Clubs} {5-Hearts} {Q-Hearts}
Walthaus: {K-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} {6-Clubs} {A-Hearts}
