Tuan Le Wins a Pot Against Jamie Gold

After a flop of {K-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}, Tuan Le bet 3,000 from late position, Jamie Gold called from the cutoff, and Francois Safieddine folded from the button. The turn card was the {7-Spades}, Le checked, and Gold tossed five blue chips (50,000) into the pot to put Le all in. As Le called, Gold said, "I've got a ton of outs" as he showed {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}, which gave him a pair of sevens, a gutshot straight draw, and a flush draw. But when Tuan Le showed {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} for top pair and a higher flush draw, Gold amended his statement with "No, I don't."

The river card was the {J-Hearts}, and Tuan Le took the pot with a higher two pair, improving his stack to 37,000. Jamie Gold dropped to about 100,000 in chips.
