Mark Manesh

Jerome Hyafil limped in under the gun, and Mark Manesh checked his option in the big blind.

The flop was QcJd2c. Manesh bet 12,000, and Hyafil called. The turn was the 6h, and Manesh moved all in for about 70,000. Hyafil instantly called to put his opponent at risk.

“I have two pairs,” Manesh said confidently, but it was quickly followed by an, “Oh, sh*t!” when he saw the showdown.

Manesh: 6d2d (sixes up)
Hyafil: 2s2h (set of deuces)

Manesh was drawing dead to a six, and the 7d river ended his day in eighth place. “Hey, what can I say?” he smiled as he stood from the table. “Sh*t happens!”

Jerome Hyafil – 310,000 (26 bb)
Mark Manesh – Eliminated in 8th place ($1,273)
