Double Knockout for Lynch

The flop shows and the player in the small blind checks. Ted Hatzakortzian moves all in for his remaining 40,000 from middle position. Damien Lynch quickly calls from the cutoff. The player on the button then moves all in for 79,000. The small blind mucks his hand. Lynch deliberates for a moment and calls off the remaining 39,000.

Lynch:
Hatzakortzian: 
Button: 

The player on the button has the lead with a flopped straight against Hatzakortzian top pair and Lynch’s middle pair with straight and flush draws.

The turn changes nothing.

The spikes on the river, giving Lynch the best had with a full house, which is enough to eliminate two players in the same hand and rocketing him to the chip lead.

Damien Lynch – 270,000
Ted Hatzakortzian – Eliminated
