"Must Be Nice"

A player in the hijack position made it 800 preflop, the button folded and Ben Lamb in the small blind made it 2,2000. The hijack called and it was off to the flop.

With the dealer spreading {4-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} for a flop Lamb bet out 2,500 and his opponent called. With a {9-Hearts} landing for the turn Lamb stayed in control and put out a 6,500 chip bet and again the hijack called.

The {6-Diamonds} river brought two checks. Lamb announced "jack high" and tabled {j-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}. The hijack declared "it's good", and Lamb was awarded the pot. Another player at the table quickly said "must be nice" to some good natured laughing. Ben Lamb has now crossed the 100,000 mark and continues to show off his poker prowess.
