Mike Leah Sweats His All In

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

With less than one big blind, Mike Leah was all in from the small blind. The player under the gun, Jamie Flynn, moved all in for around 25,000. A player in late position called, and the remaining players folded.

"I've got paint," said Leah, peeling his cards, "And a no-spotter."

Meanwhile Flynn showed {a-Spades}{9-Spades} and his opponent {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}. The board ran out {a-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{7-Spades}{7-Clubs}, and Flynn doubled up.

Leah was still peeling his cards. "The no-spotter's a club," he said, looking at the board, "So that's the {2-Clubs}."

He turned over the {2-Clubs}.

"The other one is black paint," he squeezed it, "It's a club! Flush!"

He turned over the {q-Spades}.

"What?! It looked like a club!" He was eliminated and headed to the payout desk.
