Billy Baxter the Giang Buster: Chau Giang Eliminated in 17th Place ($6,843)

Chau Giang got coolered to be eliminated from today's tournament. After the second draw, he knew his hand, a Number Three, probably was no good against Billy Baxter's hand, but he was short-stacked and pot-committed and decided to run with it. Giang got the rest of his chips into the pot.

He was correct, of course. His Number Three was no good. Billy Baxter made a Number One to eliminate Giang.

"Cold deck, cold deck," muttered Giang. "How can I lay down the hand?"

Giang earns $6,843 for his efforts. For his part, Baxter, who started the day with the shortest of the 30 stacks in the field, has become our new chip leader with 148,000 chips.
