Eric Lynch

It was a sweat for Eric "Rizen" Lynch, but he got there in the end. Sitting in the big blind, Lynch called a minimum-raise from late position. A series of raises ensued on a flop of {4-Spades}

{4-Spades}

{6-Clubs}

{2-Clubs}

, with the short-stacked Lynch being the first one to move all in. His opponent insta-called with {7-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

{7-Clubs}

, a hand that was ahead of Lynch's {6-Spades}

{6-Spades}

{5-Spades}

. The turn fell {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

, a card that did not improve Lynch. Down to one last card, Lynch nailed a gutshot straight the with {3-Spades}

{3-Spades}

to double up to 33,000.
