Armstrong Pushes Romero Off a Straight

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante

Michael Walker raised to 1,000, Connor Armstrong called in the cutoff, Matthew Wantman called on the button, the small blind called and Matthew Romero called in the big blind.

In the multi-way flop of {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{10-Spades}, the action checked to Connor Armstrong and he put in a bet of 1,800. Only Romero called.

The {a-Spades} landed on the turn and Romero took the lead, betting 4,200 and Armstrong made the call.

When the {2-Clubs} hit, Romero bet 3,300 and Armstrong raised all-in for 31,500, putting Romero in the tank. After about three minutes, another player on the table called clock and the floor was summoned to the table.

The floor had told Romero he had 30 seconds to act before his hand was dead and after about ten seconds he decided to let his hand go, tabling {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} for Broadway on the turn. Armstrong didn't show and gave the cards back to the dealer.
