Another Set Flushed

THE FIFTY-- Just after Michael Watson was sent to the rail when his set was flushed out on the river, we heard the fateful words "all in and call!" over on Table 20.

With the board reading {9-Clubs}{6-Spades}{4-Spades}{2-Spades} on the turn, Gijsbertus Spijkers (say that five times really fast) raised Jeffrey Garza's 5K bet to 14,000. Garza immediately moved in and and Spijkers called. Cameras swarmed the table as Garza said "nuts!" turning over the {A-Spades}{5-Spades}, while Spijkers tabled {2-Clubs}{2-Hearts} and had ten outs to pair the board for a full house. The river blanked out, however and Garza doubled up while Spijkers hit the rail, our second casualty here at the Fifty.
