"Miami" John Survives

[user66118]

We pick up the action on the flop. The board shows {10-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

{4-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

. Eric Pratt checks, and Larry Wright bets. "Miami" John Cernuto puts in a raise, and both opponents call. For Wright, it costs him all his remaining chips to continue, and he is at risk going to the turn.

It comes {4-Hearts}

{4-Hearts}

. Pratt checks, and this time it's Cernuto who is all in with a bet. Pratt calls. The river is the {10-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

, and the cards are turned over:

Cernuto: {5-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

{A-Spades}

{10-Diamonds}

{Q-Spades}

Pratt:

{4-Diamonds}

{5-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

{7-Spades}

Wright:

{A-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

{2-Clubs}

{Q-Hearts}

.

John Cernuto takes down the full pot with his full house, tens full of queens. The loss sends Pratt reeling down to 16,000, and elminates Larry Wright. Cernuto, meanwhile, is back up to 20,000.
