Lodden Picked Off (On the River?)

A short time after taking the majority of Johnny Lodden's chips, John O'Shea was gunning for the rest of them. Lodden opened with a raise to 450, and O'Shea came along in position. The flop brought {K-Spades}

. Lodden check-called a bet of about 1,200.

Fourth street was the {Q-Spades}

. Lodden again allowed O'Shea to bet, this time calling 2,200 to see the final card.

The river was the {J-Diamonds}

, pairing the board. Lodden checked, and O'Shea announced that he was all in, having his man slightly covered. Lodden took just a few seconds to consider before sliding his remaining chips, approximately 6,000, into the center in one neat stack.

O'Shea tabled {A-Diamonds}

, and it was the winner. A disgusted look befell Lodden as spun his cards into the air, landing face-down in the muck. He shook hands with the table, wished them luck, and then inched his way through the mass of humanity and out the exit.
