Sick Beat
Jorge Solorzano and Charlie Sickmeir just created a monster pot preflop. Solozamo, who started the day as the chip leader but had dwindled a bit, was the one all in with against the pocket aces of Sickmeir in a pot worth over 400,000!
Sickmeir was in great shape on the flop, leaving Solorzano drawing to runner-runner kings for his tournament life. A on the turn kept his hopes alive, but another on the river made his dreams come true. Solorzano hit the longshot to take down the pot and reclaim the chip lead with nearly 420,000.
Sickmeir went from a healthy stack to being severly crippled. He was eliminated from the tournament a few hands later.
