This Hand Isn't Real

Level 4 : 200/400, 50 ante
Pat Walsh
Pat Walsh

"All in and call!" As soon as we heard that we jumped up from our chairs to head over and see what was going on. When we got to the table, we thought someone was playing a joke on us.

The flop was {A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and three players were all in. Rick Salomon flopped a flush with the {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}. He held the nuts. Alex Fitzgerald flopped two pair with the {A-Clubs}{3-Clubs} and Pat Walsh flopped top set with the {A-Hearts}{A-Spades}.

The turn brought the {10-Clubs} to pair the board and give Walsh a full house. The river completed the board with the {K-Hearts} and gave Walsh the pot. After the chips were counted down, Walsh's 32,625 that he was all in for on the flop was more than Salomon's and Fitzgerald's, meaning they were both eliminated. Walsh collected two more $2,000 bounties and moved his stack to 102,000 in chips.
