Jerry "Big Schlick" Schlichting was kind enough to let the PokerNews Live Reporting Team know about a recent hand where he won a big pot to move to about 140,000 in chips while also busting Thomas Lock from the tournament. Here's how Schlichting described the action to us.
After a player raised to 1,900, Lock called from the cutoff seat and then Schlichting called on the button. "I had the ," he said. The big blind also called and the flop came down . The first player led out for 3,700 and the preflop raiser made the call.
"[Lock] reraised to 14,700 with about 17,000 behind," Schlichting described, "And I made it 20,000 more," which would mean he reraised to 34,700. Play folded back to Lock and he put himself all in with a set of sevens, meaning Schlichting needed to spike a club that didn't pair the board.
The turn was a and the river the — bink! Schlichting had made his flush and cracked the set of sevens for Lock. Schlichting was pushed the pot and moved to 140,000 in chips while Lock was sent out the door.
