Thew Hunted Down

Julian Thew is the latest near-bubble casualty. Before the last break he'd suffered two large beats in a row, and promptly then tripled up to 35,000 and started a comeback. It was curtailed when he got it all in with {A-Spades} {10-Diamonds} vs. the {A-Clubs} {K-Hearts} of Evan Hunt, no spiking.

As he took his leave, Maurice Harmon remarked to his neigbour Quinn how quickly Thew had lost a big stack. He added, however, "He was very unlucky against me back there."
