Big Slick Does the Trick for Martin
Lawrence Layton raised to 3,000 from the hijack and called when John Martin three-bet jammed for 9,500 from the small blind.
John Martin: 
Lawrence Layton: 
Martin was ahead but Layton was drawing to two live cards. The 
flop gave Martin a big lead and he improved to two pair on the 
turn. However, Layton could still win with Broadway if a jack appeared on the river.
The dealer burned one last time and put out the 
. It was a brick and Martin shipped the double.
