Scott Barber (Riverchasers)

One hand after Gail Webster’s double, Scott Barber was all in on the same table for his short stacked life from the small blind. Kevin Scott in the cutoff had him at risk and dominated with A♦ K♥ against A♥ Q♣.

There were no miracles this time as the dealer kept it low until the river and Barber was eliminated on the bubble after the 6♣ 5♥ 2♥ 6♦ K♣ run out.

Barber hit the rail in 28th place while the rest of the players were guaranteed at least $500. They are now down to three tables and play will stop for the evening when 13 players are remaining.
