Lawson's Suited One-Gap Hand Cracks Aces
Table #74 saw heavy action before the flop with a series of raises.
A player in early position raised to 1,600. The player on the button three-bet to 5,000, leaving 20,500 behind.
The player in the small blind folded, leaving Zak Lawson as the last to act. Lawson leaned forward to look at the player on the button remaining stack. Lawson then four-bet the action 13,000, which was more than half of the button’s remaining stack. Lawson’s bet prompted the player in early position fold, but player on the button moved all in, and Lawson called.
Lawson: Q♣10♣
Opponent: A♦A♣
Lawson was behind when the dealer placed 6♠8♥6♣ on the board, but then the poker ran out 7♣ on the turn and J♣ on the river to give Lawson a running flush, which sent his opponent to the rail.
