Lyons Can't Hold Against Big Slick
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
A player in middle position opened to 3,000 and Pat Lyons called in the hijack. The cutoff then three-bet to 11,000 and only Lyons called.
On the 9♦3♣2♣ flop, Lyons led all-in for 15,000 effective as the covering stack. The cutoff would tank for almost a minute before he shrugged and flicked in the call to put himself at risk.
Cutoff: A♠K♥ 
Pat Lyons: 7♥7♦
Lyons was in good shape to score a knockout until the A♣ landed on the turn to give his opponent the lead. The 4♦ river changed nothing as the WSOP bracelet winner took a dent to his stack.
