Goberville Busts Cormican
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
John Cormican opened to 5,500 in early position and was called by Patrice Goberville on the button and Mark Buckley in the big blind.
Buckley checked the Q♣A♦2♠ flop to Cormican, who put out a bet of 6,000. Goberville and Buckley both called.
Buckley checked again to Cormican on the 4♠ turn, who moved all in for 56,500. Goberville quickly called and Buckley folded. Cormican was at risk.
John Cormican: A♣Q♥
Patrice Goberville: A♠5♠
Cormican was in good shape with top two pair but Goberville had the nut flush draw as well as an open-ended straight draw to go with his pair of aces.
To Cormican's dismay, the 3♣ rolled off on the river to give Goberville the straight and send Cormican packing.
