Black Back in the Red

Andy Black got his 41,300 stack in preflop with {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{5-Spades} against an opponent with {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{9-Spades}. The {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{4-Clubs} flop gave Black top set but the other player straight, flush, and straight-flush draws. Black liked the {q-Spades} on the turn as it gave him top boat, but he wasn't completely home free yet. The {10-Hearts} would give his opponent a straight flush. The next card they saw was the {3-Clubs} but it was a boxed card, meaning it was face up in the deck. The floor was called and as usual, it was treated as a burn. Black wasn't pleased to have to sweat an extra card, but the {j-Diamonds} that came on the true river wasn't the {10-Hearts}, so he was content to call Mike Matusow over and have a laugh about it while he gathered his new stack. Black is up to 85,000.
