Labrunda Brings the Birthday Luck
Level 4
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
PokerNews missed the actual hand, but the player involved described what had transpired with photographic evidence...
On a heads-up flop of K♦6♦7♦ Daniel Labrunda and his opponent got all the chips into the middle, with Labrunda at risk.
Daniel Labrunda: K♠K♥
Opponent: Q♦9♦
Labrunda and his top set of kings were behind his opponent's flopped flush, but the miracle K♣ spiked on the turn to give him quads and left his opponent drawing stone dead. The 10♠ on the river did nothing and he was awarded the huge pot for the double-up.
Apparently his opponent was left with around 4,000 chips after that scuffle and busted out soon after while Labrunda is currently sitting with 60,000.
"Hey, it's my birthday by the way...had to bring the luck somehow!"
