Sickest Beat Ever?
Level 25
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Bobby James opened to 120,000 from the cutoff, and Ricky Landais shoved 340,000 on the button. The blinds folded and James made the call.
Ricky Landais: A♣K♣
Bobby James: A♦9♠
The dealer put out a four card flop of 6♦K♦5♦4♥ As per WSOP rules, the four cards were shuffled, and one was picked at random to be used as the second burn. Brutally for Landais, his pair was chosen as the 4♥6♦5♦ flop was established. The 8♥ turn gave James extra outs, and both the table and commentators gave their sincere commiserations as the disgusting 7♣ river gave James a straight, and ended Landais' bracelet dreams.
