Sexton Takes 3/4 of Fischman

On a board of {3-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} {8-Hearts}, Scott Fischman bets 7,000 and Mike Sexton is the only caller.

The turn is the {4-Clubs} and Fischman sets Sexton all-in.

Sexton takes a couple of minutes before calling for his whole stack.

Fischman says, "I have ace-two and a draw," turning over {A-Spades} {2-Hearts} {7-Spades} {9-Hearts} for both draws.

Sexton seems quite surprised and happy that he's ahead with {A-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} {9-Spades}. His ace-ten is currently winning the high.

The river is the {3-Spades} and Sexton takes 3/4 of the pot.

Sexton mentions afterwards that there weren't that many cards Fischman could hit.

"Just a ten..." says someone.

"Or a five..." mentions someone else.

"Or a heart..." and everyone giggles as Sexton realises he has been slightly lucky.

There's a very long pause...


"Or a deuce..."

And everyone else bursts out laughing.
