    Frank-Graham, Lafortune, and Herscovitch make their exits

    2018/05/17 - 18:24 by

    Anderson Frank-Graham is one of the more charismatic players at the tournament table, but he also has more than a modicum of talent and is often found on final tables. He was unhappy with is performance today, exclaiming as he left that it had been his, “worst final table performance ever…” – but finding no sympathy from his fellow players!

    Chips were flying around the table for the following 2 orbits, with all-ins and calls every second or third hand but no eliminations. Mario Page was down to 9K but doubled on his next hand so was marginal but safe for a little bit, and Rong Xu picked up a load of chips from both of the players on his left.

    Eventually Jean Lafortune was also eliminated as his Ace of Hearts Queen of Clubs was outdrawn by the Queen of Diamonds Jack of Diamonds held by Michael Hunter. Jean pushed on the Ace of Clubs 10 of Diamonds 3 of Diamonds flop, but Michael hit his flush after the dealer laid out a Jack of Spades on the turn and the killer Ace of Diamonds on the river.

    That was enough laddering up for Steven Harscovitch, who had nurtured a small stack for much of the afternoon. He finally pushed holding a respectable Ace of Clubs 10 of Spades and found a call from Stuart Taylor, who was playing the 2 of Clubs 2 of Hearts – which held up as the board ran out 5 of Spades 4 of Spades 9 of Hearts 9 of Spades 6 of Spades.

    6th place, Steven Herscovitch, $330
