Adam & Leave

Edward Croffut
Edward Croffut

Quicker than a machine gun, Adam Croffut moved all in from the button, Thomas Bichon called in the small blind and we had a showdown: Bichon requiring assistance with {A-Spades}{9-Hearts} versus {A-Diamonds}{J-Spades}

The {K-Spades}{8-Spades}{8-Hearts} flop made little difference, but the {9-Spades} turn did, and by the {10-Spades} river it was all over.

"Yes!" exclaimed Croffut as he leapt into the air.

"He's got a spade," informed the players at the table in unison.

Croffut went to fist-pound Jimmy Fricke on the rail who, although obliged, tried to inform him that the other guy had a spade, but the information didn't seem to register.

Finally, and after being told one more time, Croffut realized and his face went sour. From thinking he'd doubled through and was still in with a shot at a bracelet, he was now heading to the rail in 16th place.
