Boatman Takes Sizable Hit
Three players including Barny Boatman and Alejandro Muriel Rodriguez took a flop of 
in a raised pot. The first player to act checked, putting action on Boatman. He reached for chips and dropped 750 into the middle. Rodriguez called from the button and the first player did the same.
The dealer produced the 
on fourth street and action once again checked Boatman's way. He continued his aggression with a bet of 2,000. Rodriguez called and the first player folded. This left Boatman and Rodriguez heads up to the 
on the river. Boatman bet 5,000, Rodriguez instantly called, and Boatman shrugged. He tabled 
for ace-high and a busted diamond and straight draw. Rodriguez responded by tabling 
for a winning two pair.
With this hit, Boatman's stack has been essentially cut in half from the starting stack. He now sits on 16,000 in chips.
