D'Agostino Gives Up the Ghost
John D'Agostino's cards read when we arrived. He was all in, in a three-way pot, which was about to go to showdown.
"Please don't be an ace, please don't be an ace," we think he was saying, presumably in an attempt to reverse-will out the ace that would win him half the pot.
However, he squeezed out an eight instead, and his eight low was not as good as Felipe Tavares' eight low. Hoyt Verner took the other half of the pot with a pair of aces, and D'Agostino hit the rail with a min-cash.
