A Sick Finish to the Night
Showdown
Szyszko:
Sundberg:
The news was good for the at-risk Sundberg, but it wouldn't stay that way for long. The dealer burned a card and laid three more face-down on the felt. When he flipped them over to spread the flop, the was staring right up at the world. Just to really needle it, the dealer paused on the eight for about two seconds before unrolling the flop, as the whole room reacted to the news that the day was possibly moments from ending.
Fourth street struck even harder. The was the last eight-ball in the deck, and it made Szyszko the unbeatable quads and signaled Sundberg's elimination. Just so he'll have nightmares about it for a few months, the dealer was ruthless enough to put the on the river, Sundberg's useless full house marking the end of his day in 25th place, and the end of Day 3 altogether.
