One Arrival, One Departure

One of the tables up here just became about 50k richer, as Daniel Nutt arrived with two full racks of chips, a lot of them 1,000 ones. "Had a good start to the day?" asked Andy Bloch, rhetorically.

It was Torstein Iversen who busted, hands later, raising preflop in early position, but putting the rest in after big blind Thomas Merved set him all in. It was Merved's {8-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} vs. Iversen's {A-Spades} {Q-Clubs} . The flop came {Q-Hearts} {10-Hearts} {8-Spades} , and the others were murmuring "Nine...King..." in the perverse way they always do on the {J-Diamonds} turn, but the river bricked {7-Clubs} and we're down another player.
