Land Over Half a Million

"Cowboy" John Land
"Cowboy" John Land

"Cowboy" John Land and two opponents saw a flop of {10-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{4-Spades}. One player led out for 12,500, another moved all in for 42,000, and Land raised to what looked like 90,000 or so. The first player folded, and the hands were tabled.

Land: {4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}
Opponent: {a-Spades}{10-Spades}

The turn was the {9-Spades}, giving Land's opponent a flush draw, but the {q-Diamonds} bricked on the river. Land's opponent was eliminated, while Cowboy raked in the big pot.

The very next hand, he limped in from early position and a player on the button moved all in. The action folded back to Land, who called and had the player dominated.

Land: {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}
Opponent: {6-Spades}{6-Clubs}

The board ran out {3-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{3-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{9-Clubs}, and Land suddenly has over half a million chips.
