Lewis Under Ten Big Blinds

Level 10 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

On a {5-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{10-Clubs} board, Eric Wasserson checked to Toby Lewis who bet 55,000. Wasserson then check-raised all in for 139,000 and Lewis called.

Wasserson showed {j-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for a rivered flush and Lewis was forced to turn over {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}.

Left with 43,000, he moved all in from early position. It folded around to Erik Seidel in the big blind who smiled as he contemplated his decision. Eventually, he called.

Erik Seidel: {9-Clubs}{2-Spades}
Toby Lewis: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}

Lewis eventually held on the {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{k-Hearts} runout despite Seidel turning a flush draw. The table laughed as Lewis raked in the pot.
