Emerson Flops the Nuts
Livello 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Picking up the action on the turn, Eric Emerson in middle position was involved in a hand with Brook Lyter on the button. With the board reading 9♦A♦K♦10♥, Emerson bet out 7,000 and received a call.
Once the 6♥ river completed the board, Emerson thought for a moment before announcing all in. Lyter had the effective stack and went deep into the tank as he mulled over a decision for his tournament life. After a few minutes, a player not involved in the hand called for the clock but as soon as he did so Lyter made the call, turning over A♥K♥ for top two. It was no good, however, as Emerson held Q♦J♦ for the flopped nut flush with the royal redraw to deal a fatal blow to Lyter.
