Larry's Yell-Lands A Penalty

An early position raise to 40,000 was met by a reraise from Larry Sidebotham to 125,000. Richard Yelland moved all-in for about 250,000 total behind and the original raiser folded. Sidebotham made the call with {J-Hearts} {J-Diamonds} but found himself dominated by {K-Spades} {K-Hearts}.

"Hook!" cried Sidebotham as the board came out {7-Spades} {3-Diamonds} {10-Spades}. A {J-Clubs} came on the turn, followed by the {2-Clubs} on the river. At this point Sidebotham jumped out of the chair to celebrate as a couple of friends jumped inside the rail to congratulate him.

Yelland was eliminated and Sidebotham was then given an official warning for excessive celebration.
