Brian Hastings Flops a Monster

Level 2 : 100/200, 25 ante

With approximately 4,000 already in the pot and the board reading {A-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{5-Spades}, Brian Hastings bet 2,600 from the big blind, and a player in late position raised to 8,600. Hastings called, the {2-Clubs} fell on the turn, and both players checked. The river brought the {2-Hearts} and Hastings checked. His opponent checked behind, Hastings instantly tabled {A-Spades}{A-Clubs} for the flopped nut boat, and his opponent quickly sent his cards into the muck.

Clinkscales check-raised to 3,750, and after a few moments of thought, his opponent called. The river brought the {2-Hearts} and Clinkscales lead out for 8,800.

His teammate, Elias, has just over $4.4 million in live earnings. He is still looking for his first WSOP bracelet, which would go nicely with his three WPT titles.
