Lyons and Tigers and Bears

Eoghan Lyons raised to 5,000, and Abel Cabrera reraised all in for his last 14,000. Lyons made the call, having his man well covered.

Showdown:
Lyons: {9-Hearts} {9-Diamonds}
Cabrera: {A-Diamonds} {9-Clubs}

Cabrera was in tough shape to stay alive, and the board proved no help to him. It ran out {4-Diamonds} {4-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {7-Clubs} {5-Hearts}, spelling the end for one more player. Lyons has moved up to 74,000 with that win.
