Henson Heads Southward

We joined a five-way flop as the dealer spread out {4-Hearts} {3-Hearts} {6-Clubs}, but only the two blinds would make it past that point. Ray Henson led out with 675 from the small blind, and the big blind called to go heads-up to the turn. It was the {8-Diamonds}, and Henson put out another 1,150. His opponent promptly raised to 4,700, and Henson called to see the {J-Diamonds} on the river. Henson checked, then called a small bet of 3,500 to see the showdown.

His opponent tabled {5-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} for the nuts, and it's knocked Henson back down under 40,000 for the first time since the first level.
