Epstein Eliminates Hebert
Stud Eight or Better
Mary Sturges: XxXx/A♦10♣6♦K♥ - folded on sixth street
Daniel Makowsky: XxXx/A♠J♠ - folded on fourth street
Benjamin Hebert: Q♥Q♠/2♥8♥5♣10♥/Xx
Scott Epstein: 7♣8♦/5♦2♦7♦10♦/Xx
Action was picked up on fourth street with a check from Makowsky. Hebert bet before Epstein raised. Sturges called. Makowsky folded, and Hebert then reraised. Epstein responded with a fourth bet. Sturges again called. Hebert put his last chips into the pot, and action continued with a side pot up for grabs.
Sturges checked fifth street before calling a bet from Hebert. She checked sixth street as well, but eventually folded to another bet from Hebert.
Hebert and Epstein turned over their cards. Hebert had no draw to the low, and was looking for a heart against the made flush of Hebert. Hebert's final card was the 9♣, though, and he was eliminated. Epstein's final card was the 9♦ to unnecessarily improve his hand.
