No More Spades for Larson

Level 32 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Action was picked up with Joel Larson in the big blind, Zahor Maymon in hijack and Vimy Ha on the button having built a pot of 2,000,000 when the flop dropped 6A7.

Larson shoved all in for 1,375,000. Maymon looked at Ha's chips before making the call. Ha, on the other hand, had seen enough and bowed out of the hand.

Joel Larson: 53 All in
Zahor Maymon: AQ

Larson was hoping to complete his flush draw but Maymon already had a made hand with top pair. The turn A strengthened Maymon's lead. Unfortunately for Larson, his flush didn't come when the river fell 5.

Larson left the table as Maymon scooped the pot.
