Lee Nelson Cops Terrible Beat

[user57954]

Mark Ericksen raises it up pre-flop to 45,000 and Lee Nelson, who has been patiently biding his time for the right moment to strike, re-raises it up to 110,000. Ericksen makes the call and the two players take a flop of {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

{7-Diamonds}

{8-Clubs}

.

Ericksen peeks at his hole cards and pushes his last 140,000 chips into the pot. Nelson deliberates and makes the call.

Ericksen: {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{8-Hearts}

Nelson:

{A-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

Nelson makes a terrific call and Ericksen needs a lot of help to survive. The {5-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}

on the turn doesn't provide, but a miracle {8-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

lands on the river to the devistate the stack of Lee Nelson.
