Lam's Boat Fills Up for Knockout

Level 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

After Vincent Lam opened from the hijack to 6,000, the cutoff moved all in for his last 21,500. The big blind tanked for a bit before making the laydown, leaving the action on Lam. He thought for a minute or two before tossing in the call.

Cutoff: {3-Diamonds}{3-Spades}
Lam: {4-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}

The two were flipping, but Lam quickly pulled ahead when the {4-Clubs} appeared in the window of the {9-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} board, not to mention him picking up a flush draw. Lam was already more than a 9:1 favorite, and the {4-Hearts} turn improved him to a set, leaving his opponent with just two outs. The {5-Hearts} completed the board and filled up Lam's boat. He scooped the pot and scored the knockout.
