"Seat Open, 53!"

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

Over at Table 53, Lawrence Whyte is stacking up a pile of chips, courtesy of another player that had since left the poker room.

According to Whyte, he held {Q-}{Q-} and saw a {K-}{Q-}{5-} flop with two spades appear. On the {9-} turn, all the money went in with Whyte's set against his opponent's {J-}{10-} for the nut straight.

The river paired the {9-} and deliverd Whyte the 60,000 pot with a full house, sending his unfortunate opponent home with one massive bad beat story to tell.
