Big Sweat for Ermin
Level 17
: Blinds 0/0, 8,000 ante
After two limps, Ivan Ermin moved all in from the cutoff and Martin Nielsen made the call from under the gun to put him at risk.
Ivan Ermin: A♦K♠
Martin Nielsen: A♠K♥
In most situations, the players will chop this hand up, but the flop of 8♠6♦Q♠ gave Nielsen a freeroll as he had nut backdoor spade outs.
The turn J♠ gave him a full-on flush draw and Ermin had to sweat the river to avoid a spade but luckily for him, it came the J♥ and they chopped it up.
"Hey, I think you made 16,000," Eric Wasserson chimed in as they took their bets back.
