A Little Fall from Grace for Kitai
We noticed that the start-of-the-day chip leader, Davidi Kitai, was no longer in his seat. Not long ago he was sitting on a big stack, but it seemed those chips disappeared. We asked Jonathan Little what happened, and as it happened he was responsible for Kitai's demise.
As Little told it, Kitai was crippled after the two played a big hand. It began when Kitai raised on the button with 
and Little defended from the big with 
with three hearts. The 
flop contained two hearts, and Little check-called a bet from Kitai.
Little then check-called another bet when he made a flush on the 
turn, and did the same on the 
river. Kitai had been bluffing with the , and Little's flush was good to crippled the Belgian.
Not long after, Kitai got the remainder of his chips in holding 
and was behind the 
of little. The board failed to help Kitai and he was eliminated in 39th place for $10,409.
