Big Slick Doesn't Do the Trick for Bubble Boy Ben Marsh

Level 20
: 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Well, it didn't take long for the bubble to burst.
It happened when David Gutfreund opened for 23,000 from early position and Igor Balaban three-bet to 40,000. When action reached Ben Marsh on the button, he four-bet jammed for 141,000, and Gutfreund shoved all in over the top, which inspired Balaban to fold.

Gutfreund:
Marsh was in big trouble, and it got even worse when Gutfreund flopped a full house on the flop. However, a third
on the turn meant Marsh could chop if the fourth lady appeared on the river, but it wasn't in the cards as a blank peeled off.
