Lynskey Delivers a Bad Beat

Level 11 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

On a flop of {6-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{J-Hearts} Pratyush Buddiga and Alexander Lynskey got their chips in. Buddiga was the demanding favorite with {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds} as Lynskey had just {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs}. The {5-Clubs} on the turn made things interesting and Lynskey's runner runner dream was completed with the {K-Clubs} falling on the river. With his back door flush Lynskey doubled his 81,500 stack, leaving Buddiga with just 21,500.

The next hand Buddiga shoved all in for 21,100 from the cutoff. Elliot Smith on the button flat called and both blinds folded. Buddiga had {7-Spades}{7-Hearts} while Smith tabled {A-Hearts}{9-Hearts}. The board ran out {Q-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} and Buddiga doubled.
