Lemarquand Gets Rusht-on

Michael Rushton raised to 8,000 in middle position and Erik Lemarquand, who recently won a pot off of Yueqi Wang, raised to what looked like 15,000 as the next to act. It was folded back around to Rushton who moved all in for 86,500 total and then buried his hood-covered head onto the rail of the table. Lemarquand made the call and Rushton lifted his head up as the players turned over their hands.

Rushton: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}
Lemarquand: {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

Rushton got up from his chair and began to pace around as the flop came a clean {5-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} for him. The {8-Hearts} on the turn gave Lemarquand a flush draw but the river bricked out with the {K-Spades} and Rushton doubled up while Lemarquand gave back some of those chips who had won just before.
