Larson Calls Correctly, Gets Flushed Out
Three players headed to a flop in a three-bet pot which contained a little over 500,000 in the middle already. The flop came 10♠10♥2♠ and the action checked to Scott Berko on the button who bet 215,000. Thomas Larson check-raised to 445,000 and Berko ripped all in. Larson went into the tank for over three minutes with just 900,000 behind and then finally called.
Thomas Larson: 8♥8♦
Scott Berko: A♠K♠
"I knew you had spades!" Larson shouted as he rose from his chair. "Come on baby, hold one time!" Larson crossed his fingers and held them to his lips.
The turn was the 9♦ and Larson's emotions were on full display. The river was the 3♠ and Berko exploded out of his chair as he spiked a flush on the river. Larson's reaction was the opposite as he smacked his chair to the ground before exiting the tournament area.
