Crusher Crain

Just before the break, an early position player bet 25,000 on a {10-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{7-Spades} flop, and Eric Crain reraised to 57,300. His opponent went into the tank, then pushed all in for a bit more than Crain's bet.

"You made the right call, man," said Crain, as he called the extra chips. Crain turned over {A-Hearts}{5-Hearts} for a flush draw. His opponent had {J-Spades}{J-Hearts}.

Fortunately for Crain, the {K-Hearts} popped out on the turn, giving him his flush and making the river {10-Diamonds} inconsequential. Crain is down way up to 355,000.
