Pickering Tanks With Second Nuts

We caught the action on the river as a crowd developed around Ben Lamb and Jamie Pickering with the board reading {7-Spades}{10-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}. Lamb had bet around 28,000 with Pickering in the tank with a decision for most of his chips.

Pickering sighed and made what appeared to be a reluctant call. Lamb was coy about opening up his hand, and which point Pickering realized his second nuts were good as he revealed {10-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{3-Clubs}.

Lamb and others at the table raised their eyebrows wondering why Pickering had taken so long to call with the second nuts as Pickering explained he was concerned that Lamb had the ten-nine.

Pickering virtually doubles to 95,000 with Lamb back down to 125,000.
