Garrett Spikes the River For a Knockout
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
"Stay here, I'm going to go for it," the small blind said as Robert Renaud raised to 2,000 under the gun. Nolan Garrett called on the button, as did the small blind.
All three players checked the 8♥K♣Q♥ flop, and the small blind then moved all in for 7,500 on the J♥ turn. Only Garrett called.
The small blind showed Q♠5♥ for a pair of queens, while Garrett had A♥7♠ for straight and flush draws. The 4♥ fell on the river, and Garrett made his flush to send the small blind to the rail.
"You had a lot of outs, but you're supposed to fade those most of the time," the small blind lamented as he made his exit.
