C'mon!!

Poker isn't always pretty, but a win is a win.

Scott Baumstein and his opponent were all in before the flop and the hands were tabled:

Showdown
Baumstein: {k-Hearts}{8-Spades}
Opponent: {k-Spades}{j-Diamonds}

The {3-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{9-Hearts} flop was clean and so too was the {q-Diamonds} on the turn.

The {8-Clubs} spiked on the river though, giving Baumstein the best and and the win.

"C'MON!!" his opponent shouted in disdain.

No one said this game was fair.
