Conrad Sucks Out

Level 18 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Chris Conrad
Chris Conrad

PokerNews missed the hand but was colorfully informed by the table as to what went down.

Before the flop, Will Joyner moved all in, followed by a shove over the top by Walker Miskelly. The action was then on RunGood Ambassador Chris Conrad, who went deep into the tank for several minutes.

After a good while, Conrad "**ing tank-called" (as described by Miskelly) and the cards were tabled, with Miskelly covering.

Will Joyner: {j-}{j-}
Chris Conrad: {9-}{9-}
Walker Miskelly: {q-}{q-}

The flop then came out nine high to give Conrad top-set, and it held the rest of the way to give him the massive triple-up.

"Merry Christmas," he eventually said and he threw calling chips over to Chilton's side of the table.

Chilton then rolled over {a-Spades}{k-Clubs} for a rivered pair of aces which was good enough to take the pot as Nia mucked his hand.
