Big Hand See Boatman Hand Over Plenty of Chips

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Barny Boatman has lost a large pot that resulted in two players being paid off. We arrived at Boatman's table to discover him sat there with {K-Diamonds}{K-Clubs} in front of him and a board reading {9-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{9-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{J-Spades}.

In front of Erica Lindgren was {4-Spades}{4-Clubs} that had turned a set, and in front of another players there was {A-Hearts}{K-Spades} that had improved to beat Boatman's hand. The chips had gone in preflop, Lindgren moving all in first, then the player with ace-king and then Boatman calling both and probably licking his chops, until the flop and turn were dealt at least.
