Clark Rivers Set to Eliminate Player
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
The middle position player bet 1,400 and was called by Neil Blumenfield in the cutoff, and Nakia Clark on the button. The big blind raised to 6,000.
The initial raiser folded as did Blumenfield, but Clark went into deep thought for nearly a minute before moving all in. The big blind called to be at risk for 43,000.
Big Blind: A♦Q♣
Nakia Clark: 6♣6♦
Clark was ahead with pocket sixes and the flop of J♣9♣5♠ was safe, however the big blind spiked the A♥ to take the lead. But there were groans by the table come the river as Clark hit the 6♥ to make a set to eliminate the big blind.
The big blind stood up and took a photo to show their friends. The 2015 November Niner Blumenfield quipped "Tell them you got it in on the turn and had a bad beat!"
