"I Did Get Lucky for Sure"

Level 4 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

With around 65,000 in the pot and a board reading {q-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{j-Spades}, Dan Cates bet 32,000 from the small blind and Talal Shakerchi called from the cutoff. When the {7-Spades} completed the board on the river, Cates moved all in for his last 81,000 and Shakerchi snap-called.

Cates tabled the {a-Spades}{6-Spades} for the rivered nuts, and Shakerchi shook his head in disgust before showing the {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}.

"I did get lucky for sure," Cates said of his runner-runner flush.
