Keating Rivers a Full House; Eliminates Opponent

Alex Keating led out with a 3,300 bet on a {A-Spades}{7-Spades}{4-Spades} flop holding {A-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}. Little did he know his opponent, who smooth called the bet, was sitting with the mortal nuts - {K-Spades}{9-Spades}.

The {6-Diamonds} fell off on the turn and Keating fired once more with a pot-sized bet. His opponent then revealed the strength of his hand, moving all in over the top of Keating's bet and Keating made the call.

One of the unknown player's supporters on the rail was overheard shouting, "Unbeatable!" at the site of the situation. Oops . . . The flush was in fact beatable, and the {7-Diamonds} that fell on the river was one of the four cards left in the deck that could beat it.

A happy Alex Keating now has just over 80,000 in chips.
