Sammy Sent Sad

We’ve just lost ANZPT Canberra champ Sammy Huang from the Main Event in a bit of a big blind special gone wrong.

We picked up the action on the turn on the board of {5-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{2-Clubs}, with Nick Wong betting 38,000. From the big blind, Huang deliberated before check-raising all in for an additional 54,000.

“I guess I have to call,” sighed Wong as he did the math and threw the chips into the middle with {q-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for a flush draw. He’d need to hit it as Huang tabled {J-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} for trip sixes.

The dealer burned and revealed the {3-Clubs} to the delight of Wong as he made his flush to win the pot.

“Can you believe that?” said a shocked Huang as he stood and stared at the board for several moments before eventually sulking off to the cashier in 16th place.
