Ross' Beat Sends Reichard Out

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante
Mike Ross got very lucky.
Mike Ross got very lucky.

The board was {j-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} on the turn when two players were all in with another player thinking. Mike Ross was under the gun with his stack in the middle, and Josh Reichard on the button had called off. Apparently, the action had started with a bet from the big blind, a call from Ross, and a raise from Reichard. The big blind called, and Ross shipped it. After the big blind finally folded, Ross revealed he had been caught.

"I thought 1,000 percent you had no hand," he said with a laugh, turning {a-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} for the nut flush draw and a gutshot.

Reichard had the goods with {8-}{7-} for the nut straight. The big blind said he folded a weak straight. The dealer burned and turned the {3-Diamonds} though, giving Ross his flush and putting a painful beat on the Wisconsin native. He took it in stride and headed for the reentry desk.
