"Big Shirley Never Loses!"

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

Jay Carter raised to 7,000 from middle position. The player in the hijack seat called and then Joe Tehan reraised from the small blind to 15,100. Jean-Robert Bellande called from the big blind, Carter called and then the hijack seat called.

The four players took the {10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} flop and Tehan checked. Bellande bet 33,000 and Carter called. The hijack seat raised all in for approximately 300,000 and Tehan folded. Bellande folded and then Carter called all in for 137,800. Carter held the {6-Hearts}{4-Hearts} and the hijack seat the {5-Diamonds}{5-Spades}. It was open-ended straight draw versus bottom set.

The turn was the {6-Spades} and the river the {8-Spades}. When the river hit and landed Carter's straight, he yelled, "Big Shirley never loses!"

Carter is up to around 500,000 now.
