Leah Left With Crumbs After Dinner

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

A player limped in under the gun for 1,000 and Mike Leah followed along a few seats over. Both the cutoff and the button called before the small blind popped it up to 7,000. The under the gun limper called before Leah backshoved for 36,200 total. Action folded around to the small blind who folded and the under the gun limper dropped into the tank. He thought for a bit over a minute before deciding to call all in for less than Leah's stack.

Mike Leah: {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}
Under the Gun: {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}

The flop came down {K-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} and Leah was in the lead with his sixes as well as the only flush draw. The turn was the {7-Spades} though and that brought extra outs for the under the gun player. The river was the {K-Clubs} pairing the board. That counterfeited Leah's pair of sixes and with his ace kicker, the player under the gun doubled up for 27,000, leaving Leah with just 8,800 chips.
