Listed Higher in the Counts

Marty Derbyshire was up to around 120,000 after a curious hand. With perhaps 50,000 in the pot by the turn of the {8-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} {K-Diamonds} board, Derbyshire bet 30,000 forcing his opponent to fold, showing the {8-Diamonds}. Derbyshire showed the {8-Spades}.


A couple of hands later Derbyshire is involved another pot. The turn's out giving us a {4-Hearts} {2-Spades} {5-Hearts} {3-Hearts} board and he's faced with a 25,000 bet that he called. The river {A-Diamonds} saw Derbyshire bet 25,000 when checked to him. The call was made but the muck came also as Derbyshire showed {A-Hearts} {J-Hearts} for the nut flush. He's on 170,000 now.
