Bassett Strikes Again
Level 12
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
After an open from Nicholas Rivas, Gregory Bassett moved all in and Rivas called to put him at risk.
Bassett flipped over 8♦8♣ but Rivas had him beat with 10♦10♠.
To make matters worse for Bassett, a ten appeared right in the window of the 7♣6♣10♥ flop to give Rivas top set.
"Nine!" Bassett requested as the turn fell the Q♦, and once again, the 9♣ plopped down on the river to give him the straight to win the pot, much to Rivas' disgust.
