Great Scott, Try Harder

As Scott Baumstein was busting to his opponent, Christian Harder was busy losing a big pot to his opponent.

Harder raised to 1,600 and called when three-bet to 4,800. The flop fell {6-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{a-Hearts} and Harder bet 4,000 when the action was checked to him. His opponent check-raised all-in for 9,800 and Harder called even though he didn't like it.

The big blind opened {k-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{a-Spades}{9-Spades} for the flopped nut flush.
Harder opened {q-Clubs}{6-Spades}{7-Spades}{8-Clubs} for a pair and straight draw.

The board ran out {a-Clubs}{2-Clubs} and Harder is now very short, and the blinds aren't going down anytime soon.
