Caridad Can't Get on Trask
John Caridad has just been eliminated in a big multi-way pot. When we arrived at the table, Caridad and three other players were playing for a main pot of 18,300, and there was another 2,025 in the side for the three live players.
The flop came out , and Grant Trask led out with a pot-sized bet. Roberto Romanello took a long pause before announcing, "Pass," and the third player ducked out as well to lock up the side pot for Trask.
"Okay now just muck!" Caridad pleaded.
"I only got one pair," Trask responded, turning up . His pair of sixes was well in front, and Caridad flipped over his for his tournament life. He was unable to improve on the turn or river, and he has been cut down.
Trask, meanwhile, moves up to about 52,000 with that pot.
