Hot In Herre After Dinner

Grinding back up the charts

"All in and call table four," was screamed out by the dealer, and a quick rush of TV crews followed.

The reasoning? Nelly was in the action after he called an opponent's all in to be up against {K-Spades}{J-Diamonds} with his {A-Spades}{J-Spades}.

The flop fell down {4-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} to keep Nelly in the lead, but when the {10-Hearts} landed on the turn, it gave his opponent additional outs for a straight.

When the river peeled the {7-Spades}, hands were shook, Nelly raked the pot and the TV crews added another highlight to the reel as Nelly pushed up to over 16,000.
