Leah Loses a Flip to Ostby

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

After just losing a few hands, Mike Leah found himself in the big blind and faced with a 15,400 shove from Bjorn Ostby. He would make the call and the players then tabled their hands.

Bjorn Ostby: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}
Mike Leah: {4-Clubs}{4-Hearts}

The flop came down ace first as the dealer fanned out {a-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} and Leah would now need to hit a sailboat. The {2-Diamonds} on the turn and {3-Clubs} on the river did not change anything, as Ostby secured himself a double-up through Leah.
