Lucky Lacay

The player in the hijack seat opened for 350 and got three callers -- the cutoff, the small blind, and Ludovic Lacay in the big blind. The flop came {A-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{4-Hearts}. It checked to the raiser who continued for 1,150, and only Lacay called.

The turn brought the {10-Hearts}. Both players checked. The river was the {A-Clubs}, pairing the board, and both checked once more.

Lacay's opponent tabled {9-Spades}{5-Hearts} for two pair. Lacay turned over {K-Hearts}{3-Hearts} for the heart flush to claim the pot.

"Wow," said Liz Lieu afterwards, sitting a couple of seats to Lacay's right. "Ludovic got lucky!"

"I don't play as well as you do, so I need to get lucky," said Lacay with a wry grin. He pushes back close to 20,000 after that hand.
