“The PartyPoker Power Couple,” Jaimes Staples and Rebecca Hardisty, both busted their first bullet, almost simultaneously.
Jaime Staples busted over at Table 1 in dramatic fashion. He’d opened to 4,000 with [Ad][3d], and his opponent three-bet to 8,000. Staples made the call, and then proceeded to check the 6♥6♣3♣ flop. His opponent then forced the Canadian professional all-in for 36,000. Staples engaged his opponent in some back-and-forth table banter, and eventually, he decided to make the call.
The PartyPoker Team Pro had made a good read, and he was flipping against K♣Q♣. Sadly for him, his villain improved to a flush on the 10♣ river and knocked out the Maple-leafer.
On anearby table, Hardisty was all in with K♦Q♦, and was in rough shape against her opponent’s K♣K♥. No dice for Hardisty on the A♠7♣Q♣9♠3♥ board, and she joined her other half at the rail.
Rumors have it they’re both heading to the rebuy-desk.
