Landfish Freefalling

Steve Landfish raised from the cutoff and received a call from Daniel Idema in the big blind. It went check-bet-raise-call on the {A-Spades} {3-Hearts} {9-Hearts} flop, which was followed by a bet and call on the {10-Clubs} turn. The same action occurred on the {2-Spades} river and Idema showed {A-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} for a flopped two pair. Landfish was clearly frustrated as he tossed his cards in the muck, leaving himself 580,000 behind.

In the very next hand, Landfish raised from the cutoff and was met with a three-bet from Barry Greenstein in the cutoff. The blinds folded, Landfish four-bet, and Greenstein made the call. Landfish bet the {2-Spades} {Q-Spades} {10-Spades} flop, Greenstein just called, and the dealer burned and turned the {2-Clubs} .

Again Landfish bet and Greenstein called off his last 60,000. Greenstein showed {A-Spades} {K-Spades} for the flopped flush, while Landfish was in need of a deuce or seven with his {7-Spades} {7-Diamonds} . The {3-Spades} river was close to a deuce, but not close enough. Landfish was left with just 310,000 after the hand.
