Lestock Pulling Away from the Pack

PLO

We didn't catch all the preflop action, but we know a huge pot developed when David Hedley was all in preflop holding {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} against the {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{9-Spades}{7-Spades} of David Lestock. Almost the entire table was on its feet as the flop came out {9-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}, keeping Hedley in the lead.

When the {K-Clubs} hit the turn, Lestock hit two pair and vaulted into the lead. While he didn't need it, the {8-Spades} river gave Lestock a straight. Hedley was eliminated from the tournament while Lestock added the sizeable pot to his already massive stack.
