Wantman Wins Flip

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Facing a raise, Matthew Wantman announced the classic "ehh f**k it" and raised his opponent all in, which was quickly called.

Matthew Wantman: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}
Opponent: {a-}{j-}{9-}{10-}

The flop came {a-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} which gave Wantman's opponent the lead with top two pair, and the turn {9-Hearts} further improved him to a gutter straight draw. But the river {k-Hearts} gave Wantman a bigger two pair, and since neiither players had hearts that was good enough for Wantman to win the pot, busting his opponent.
