Sam Trickett Out in 31st Place ($9,500)

In an earlier hand we saw Sam Trickett losing two thirds of his stack against Yuri Salikaev. We only caught the tail end of the action, but the board was showing [8c] [3s] [2d] [9c] [Kh] and Trickett had bet 80,000. Salikaev moved all-in, for around 50,000 more, and Trickett said, I don’t even know what I’m doing,” before mucking his hand.

That left him with 132,000, and they went into the middle over a Alexander Lakhov raise. The Russian made the call and we had a showdown.

Showdown

Trickett: [Kd] [Qs]
Lakhov: [Ad] [Jd]

Board: [As] [Td] [7c] [3s] [5s]

No luck for Trickett and he becomes our 31st place finisher.

Lakhov ~ 330,000
