Lindsey Hits the River on Hammarstrom; Muehl Wins Another Big Pot
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Leighton Lindsey bet 6,000 from the hijack on a flop of 5♦10♠2♦ and Nick Hammarstrom called in early position.
The turn was the 2♣ and Lindsey bet another 12,000. Hammarstrom again called to see the Q♦ river, where Lindsey bet 16,000. Hammarstrom called once more, and Lindsey showed K♦4♦ for a rivered flush to win the pot.
At another table, Damon Muehl and Scott Grasse had built a pot of around 60,000 as they went to the river on a board of J♦10♥8♠6♣8♥. Muehl then bet 25,000 from the big blind, and Grasse called in the cutoff.
Muehl showed 10♣8♣ for a full house, and Grasse mucked. "Boo!" Bobby Cobb said.
