Luske Singing Away

Fly Dutchman, fly high
Fly Dutchman, fly high
Stud-8

The boards read as follows between three players.

Unknown player: (X-X) {K-Spades} {2-Hearts} {4-Clubs}
Kelly Kim: (X-X) {Q-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds} {8-Spades} {6-Clubs} (X)
Marcel Luske: (X-X) {5-Spades} {8-Clubs} {7-Hearts} {9-Spades} (X)

Picking up the action on fifth street, the two players checked to Luske. He fired a bet and only Kelly Kim called. Kim was dealt a {6-Clubs} on sixth and Luske was dealt the {9-Spades}. The action checked.

After receiving their final cards, both players squeezed and then checked their options. Luske rolled over {Q-Clubs} {7-Spades} {3-Hearts} to add to his board, but all he had was a pair of sevens. Kim saw this and mucked his hand.

"A gift from the gods." Marcel proclaimed. "I missed a low, but hit two sevens, wow."

Luske now has 33,000 chips and his spirits are high because he is singing away at his table.
