Nuts No Good for Lakey

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 100 ante

Robert Lakey limped in from under the gun, Todd Metheny raised to 4,500 in the cutoff, and Lakey called.

The flop came down {k-Spades}{j-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}, Lakey checked, and Metheny continued for 5,000. Lakey moved all in for 42,200, an enormous bet, and Metheny tanked for 90 seconds or so before calling.

Metheny: {k-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}
Lakey: {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

Lakey flopped Broadway against Metheny's top two pair, and remained ahead after the turn brought the {9-Spades}, but the {j-Spades} spiked on the river. Metheny eliminated Lakey with a full house, and chipped up to 130,000.
