Bad Times for Johnny Blade

John Bladon
John Bladon
John Bladon has been riding a middling stack for most of the day, and he finally went with {6-Hearts} {7-Hearts} in an all-in shove. He was looked up by an opponent with {K-Spades} {Q-Spades}, and Bladon liked his chances. "Come on, baby!" he said with a clap of the hands.

The flop was no fun, though. It came {K-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} {8-Clubs}, and Bladon astutely observed, "That's not good." The {8-Spades} on the turn left him drawing dead to a chop with quads, but the river {2-Spades} was not the one-outer he was looking four.

That's the end of the day for "Johnny Blade", headed back to his native Canada with $5,210 for his efforts.
