Lawson Makes Nice Laydown

Facing an early-position all-in raise, Ted Lawson went into the tank, clearly in distress at the thought of folding his holding. He eventually said, "It hurts!" before tossing his cards into the muck.

"Don't show me ace-king," quipped Lawson, but it turned out to be the right fold as his opponent flashed {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}!

Lawson in still in good shape with about 19,000 in chips.
