Lyndaker Staying Around

We didn't catch the action, but after we noticed Josh Brikis heading for the doors we talked to Richard Lyndaker to try and find out what had happened.

According to Lyndaker, after series of raises preflop both players witnessed a {j-}{9-}{4-} flop. It was here that Lyndaker check-shoved and Brikis called. Cards were turned over and it appeared as if Brikis' {K-}{K-} were set to win against Lyndaker's {Q-Hearts}{j-Clubs}. A {10-} on the turn and a {k-} on the river proved to be disaster for Brikis though as he was eliminated due to a straight hit by Lyndaker.
