Nice Turn for Hyman

Thomas Middleton raised to 7,000 from late position only to have Matthew Hyman three-bet to 16,000 from the cutoff. Action folded back to Middleton and he simply moved all in. Hyman called off for 133,000 and the cards were turned up.

Middleton: {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}
Hyman: {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}

Hyman was the player at risk and was totally dejected when the flop came down {A-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}, pairing Middleton's ace and giving him the lead. As Hyman was preparing to leave, the dealer burned and turned his salvation, the {8-Hearts}. Middleton was drawing dead as the {6-Spades} was put out on the river.

Hyman is now up to 275,000.
