Thomas Splits to Stay Alive
Stud Eight or Better
A short-stacked Darin Thomas was all-in on fourth street showing 
. George Rechnitzer (
) and Stewart Yancey (
) matched his bet. Yancey bet fifth street, drawing a call from Rechnitzer, and both players checked sixth street with the following boards:
Rechnitzer: 
Yancey: 
Thomas: 
Rechnitzer bet, and Yancey thought for a moment before folding. Thomas showed 
for a winning low, and Rechnitzer won the high with a pair of kings.
