Nível 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

A player opened to 6,500 from early position and was called by a player one seat over as well as Lane Menhinick in middle position.

The early position player promptly moved all in for around 45,000 following the 2♦9♦A♠ flop, forcing one of his opponents out of the hand but not Menhinick, who called off with the effective stack.

Lane Menhinick: A♦K♣
Early Position Player: A♣K♦

Though at risk, Menhinick could not be eliminated and was freerolling holding the superior diamond. The J♦ turn provided a significant sweat for the early position player, needing to fade a diamond to chop the pot. The backdoor draw did in fact come in after the 7♦ river improved Menhinick to the ace-high flush to hand him more than a full double while leaving the initial raiser with crumbs and a dejected visage.

Opponent: K♥K♦

The turn came K♣ to give his opponent a set.

"Aw, come on," said Escovedo to the dealer. 'Spade me!" The river came 10♠.

"Come on!" yelled Escovedo. "I needed that!"
