Banwari, Meet Tex
From middle position, Narendra Banwari opened with a raise to 2,000. Action then folded to Spencer "Tex" Hudson in the big blind and he three-bet to 5,500 after a minute of thought. Banwari came back with some more aggression and cranked things up to 15,000 even. After a little bit of thought, Hudson made the call to see a flop.
The flop came down 
and Hudson checked. Banwari wasted little time in moving all in. Hudson removed his earbuds and requested a count.
"31,100," said the dealer.
After a few more moments of thought, Hudson called.
Banwari tabled the 
and Hudson the 
. Banwari was ahead with his tournament life on the line, but the the 
on the turn quickly swung things in the other direction. Banwari slammed his fist on the table in disgust as the dealer placed the 
on the river to end his tournament run.
Banwari picked up his tournament ID card and threw it sort of at the dealer. The tournament director happened to be standing right there when this happened and stopped Banwari while he was exiting to reprimand him for his actions. While Banwari made his exit in disgust, Hudson collected the pot and moved to over 100,000 in chips.
