Lichtenberger Back to Starting Stack

We picked up the action on a flop of {A-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds} {5-Spades}, and Andrew Lichtenberger was heads up with the betting lead. He stuck out 1,200 chips, and his opponent made the smooth call. Both players checked the {2-Spades} turn, and the {5-Diamonds} river drew a leading bet from Lichtenberger's opponent. He made it 1,825 to call, and Lichtenberger obliged him by dropping the chips into the pot.

The unknown player showed {Q-Hearts} {Q-Clubs} for the set, and that was better than Lichtenberger's hand. We never saw it though; into the muck went his cards, and he's back to 30,000 and ready to restart his day from all over again.
