Black Runs Into Runners

[user66118]

Andy Black

Andy Black and another player at his table got it all in before the flop, with Black having him covered by just a few chips.

When the cards were turned up, Black's {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

was well ahead of his opponent's {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{2-Clubs}

.

The flop was nice and safe: {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{6-Hearts}

{K-Clubs}

.

The turn and river, however, were much more unkind to the pro. The {5-Clubs}

{5-Clubs}

and

{J-Clubs}

that completed the board made his opponent the runner-runner nut flush, coming from behind to snatch a big pot from Black.

After losing that battle, Black is down to his final 2,600 chips, and now he's the one covered by the rest of the table.
