Lavallee Out-Flopped, Out the Door

[user66118]

In a battle of the blinds Jason Lavallee was all in before the flop for about 70,000 from the small blind. Bobby Firestone was in the big blind with the covering stack, putting his opponent to the test. He showed {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{7-Spades}

, and Lavallee was looking for a big double up with {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

{9-Diamonds}

.

The flop stripped him of any of those doubling delusions though as it came out {8-Spades}

{8-Spades}

{7-Diamonds}

{7-Clubs}

to give Firestone the unlikely trips. The turn {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

added four more outs to Lavallee's straight, but the {5-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

on the river was a blank.

Bobby Firestone has taken out Jason Lavallee, chipping his way up to 170,000.
