[user67765]

Steve Leonard raised to 300 from the button and Matthew Pearson made the call in the big blind.

They went to a flop of {a-Spades}

{a-Spades}

{10-Spades}

{J-Clubs}

and Pearson checked to Leonard who fired 400. Pearson put in the check-raise to 1,100 with Leonard making the call.

On the {6-Spades}

{6-Spades}

turn card, Pearson fired 2,200 and Leonard called once more to see the {4-Hearts}

{4-Hearts}

land on the river. Pearson fired 3,600 before Leonard moved all in for 5,575. Pearson made the call.

Pearson: {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{Q-Hearts}

Leonard:

{9-Spades}

{7-Spades}

Pearson had flopped the nuts but Leonard made a flush to take the pot and leave Pearson crippled with just 1,650 in chips.
