Zambanini Rivers a Straight to Eliminate Lavin
Level 14
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Action was picked up with Michael Lavin all in for 32,500, and Matthew Zambanini putting him at risk.
Michael Lavin: A♣10♣ 
Matthew Zambanini: K♠9♥
Lavin was ahead with ace high, and jumped further into the lead after the 7♥10♥3♣ flop giving him a pair of tens. But after the 6♣ on the turn, Zambanini now had a gut shot straight draw to go with his king as outs. The river brought in that straight draw, as the 8♥ hit the felt, giving Zambanini the straight, and eliminating Lavin.
