Sir Lance-alot

Level 5 : 250/500, 75 ante

After losing an earlier confrontation of premium pocket pairs, with his {K-}{K-} failing to crack {A-}{a-}, Lance Steinberg took another crack at the same opponent.

Steinberg's last 14,000 went into the middle before the flop on the strength of {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs}, while his nemesis was racing with overcards in {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}.

Flop: {2-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

With top set Steinberg put a hammerlock on the hand, but the {6-Spades} gave his opponent a four-flush to provide the requisite sweat.

River: {6-Diamonds}

The board paired to solidify Steinberg's double, but he had other ideas, telling the vanquished player "we're not even yet."
