Leigh Hits Broadway
Level 19
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Action picked up on the river in a hand between Melanie Leigh, on the button and Frank Lindsay, in the big blind.
With over 100,000 in the pot and the board reading 10♥Q♠5♠5♣J♦, Lindsay led out with a bet of 30,000. Leigh then moved all in, putting Lindsay at risk, who had about 220,000 behind.
After a moment of thought, Lindsay arrived at a fold, flashing a five in the process. Leigh showed A♣K♣ for the nut straight.
