Lyu Doubles Through Talboom
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Wen Lyu was on his final fumes when he shoved for 5,000 from the small blind. Tom Talboom made the call to put Lyu at risk.
Wen Lyu: J♠5♠
Tom Talboom: 9♥7♠
Lyu liked the flop when it came 8♣J♣J♦, but Talboom was not down and out, as he had outs to a gutshot straight to topple Lyu.
The A♦ turn was safe for Lyu, and the 8♦ river upgraded him to a full house to secure the small double-up.
