Sofer Busts to Force Hand-for-Hand Play

Austin Marks min-raised to 10,000 from under the gun and it was folded all the way around to the big blind in Evan Sofer who called. On the {Q-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} flop, Sofer led for 10,000 and Marks raised the pot. Sofer called all in for the 12,000 he had left as the players flipped their hands.

Marks: {A-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Hearts}
Sofer: {7-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{3-Spades}

Sofer’s pair of sixes were ahead for the time being plus he had a wrap and a low draw against the pair of fives and nut-low draw of Marks. The {9-Spades} turn changed nothing but the {10-Diamonds} on the river gaves Marks tens up to eliminate Sofer in 38th place, just two short of the money.
