Dermot Blain (pictured earlier giving Max Silver a staredown) has knocked out Barton Fizgerald, who got the last of his chips (it looked like under 20,000) all in preflop in good shape with Qh Qd vs. Blain’s As Qs. An ace popped out on the flop, however, and put an end to Fitzgerald’s Irish Open evening dreams. Blain gave him a sympathetic word; we all know how that feels.
On the bright side, Fitzgerald can now pop in to the Pokio Irish Open PLO Championship, the JP Masters or the €2,000 High Roller at 8pm… a world of side event choice here (see full list).
