Bedford Beats Prinsloo in Showdown
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Chris Gower saw his stack reduced below the starting stack when early chip leader Theuns Prinsloo bet for 21,000 on the 9?8?3?3? turn. "That good, eh? ... I fold," Gower announced and Rajeev Poonhath joked "I think my eight was good."
"Which eight?" Prinsloo replied and flashed the 8?.
One hand later, Prinsloo didn't fire the 10?9?5?4?8? river against Thomas Bedford and showed the 8?7? as last aggressor for a missed straight draw and rivered third pair. It was no good, as Bedford had the 10?8? for two pair.
Prinsloo has been involved in many of the hands but the most recent ones saw his stack reduced somewhat.
