One Down Already

[user46392]

Wow, €10,000 really doesn't last very long in Monaco, does it?

The sad demise of Mike Vesia came largely on a board that read {3-Clubs}

when his opponent, Erik Cajelais, turned over {K-Clubs}

to take the sizable pot. "Seat open!" cried the dealer, but tablemate Richard Ashby suggested to her that she perhaps ought to count both players' chips. Indeed, Vesia had change and was called back to the table.

Disgruntled, he open-shoved in early position the next hand and doubled through big blind Ashby who called with {Q-Diamonds}

; Vesia's

stayed good on the {A-Diamonds}

board, and he was up to 1,125.

1,125 isn't much when you started with 30,000 though, and Vesia shoved again the next hand, this time under the gun. It folded around to the gent on the button who called, and announced as they flipped their cards, "You're really in trouble here. I'm sorry, I just picked up this great hand..."

Button: {4-Clubs}
