button in SafariReid Busts with Ace-Queen.....Again
Terrance Reid was humming along, but the presence of PokerNews at the table prompted Reid to address his woes with ace-queen on Day 1c, where it had cost him a buy-in already.
"I'm going to bust with ace-queen either this hand or the next hand," said Reid as he resumed his action at the table.
The first hand was a fold, but like Babe Ruth, Reid called his shot on the next hand.
Reid opened from early position before Hieng Hoang three-bet to 4,500 on the button. Reid four-bet all-in for 21,800. Hoang called to put Reid at risk.
Terrance Reid: A♥Q♥
Hieng Hoang: 8♥8♣
Reid must have looked into his crystal ball, as he indeed picked up ace-queen just moments after predicting his own demise.
It appeared as though his worries were unfounded as a queen showed in the window as the dealer spread the flop, but it jeeringly came with an eight when the dealer fanned out Q♦4♣8♦ to give Reid top pair and Hoang a set of eights.
The K♣ sealed the deal as Reid was once again on his way to busting out with ace-queen.
The dealer completed the board with a 10♦ as Reid got up from the table and headed to the cage.
Reid bought back into the tournament and is now on a fresh stack of 40,000.
