Leah Rivered, Eh

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

Mike "goleafsgoeh" Leah was faced with a 16,000-chip bet with the board reading {q-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} and about 19,000 in the middle.

Leah tanked for a very long time and even took his sunglasses off to the astonishment of the whole table. Finally, after counting down his whole stack, he cut out enough chips to make the call and flipped them into the pot.

His opponent sheepishly turned over {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} for a rivered flush and Leah flashed {q-Spades}{q-Hearts} for a flopped set of queens before mucking.

Leah is now down around the starting stack with 34,000 chips to his name.
