Miami John Falls Behind on Seventh

Level 1 : 100/200, 0 ante

A player with the {2-Diamonds} was the bring-in. Another player called with the {Q-Hearts} while one called with the {7-Hearts} before John Cernuto completed with his {A-Spades}. All three opponents called.

John Cernuto: {x-}{x-}/{A-Spades}{7-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}/{x-}
Opponent 1: {x-}{x-}/{Q-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}/{x-}
Opponent 2: {x-}{x-}/{2-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{9-Clubs} — folded on fifth
Opponent 3: {x-}{x-}/{7-Hearts}{2-Spades} — folded on fourth

John Cernuto led with a bet on fourth, which picked up two calls and earned one fold. On fifth, Cernuto bet again and was called by just one player this time. Cernuto bet again on sixth and was called. Then on seventh, both players checked.

Cernuto's opponent showed down {Q-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} for two pair.

"I was drawing to diamonds," he said, which prompted a sigh from Cernuto.

"I got aces," Cernuto said, but he only showed his {6-Hearts}, implying that he had outs to a low or a straight as well. With that, the pot was pushed the way of Cernuto's opponent and Cernuto dropped under the starting stack.
