Lappin Breaks the Curse
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Conor Beresford and David Lappin were heads up on a turn of 9♦2♦K♠3♦, which got checked by both. The 8♥ river was also knuckled down and Lappin showed down Q♥9♣ for a pair of nines.
Beresford's cards hit the muck and Lappin jumped up from his seat.
"I've finally done it!" he exclaimed after apparently not winning a pot for a while. "I hope we play another level now."
