Eastgate:
Borg:
This final table has been full of suckouts, but it looked like we weren't going to have that here, as the flop came down , giving Eastgate a set and leaving Borg drawing to runner runner to win or chop. Of course, poker is rarely that easy, so the
hit the turn, giving Borg eight outs for a chop. For once though, there was no miracle river, as the
came.
After the hand, Eastgate is up to 3.1 million, while Borg drops down to 1.6 million.
