Lucky Turn Ignites Another Lauer Celebration
Level 31
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
James Lauer moved all in for 1,750,000 in the cutoff and Richard Rossetti called in the small blind.
James Lauer: K♦3♦
Richard Rossetti: K♣Q♦
Lauer was crushed by Rossetti's better king, but he picked up some hope on the 7♦2♥2♦ flop with a flush draw. The 8♦ turn gave him his flush.
"Let's go! Still in it!" Lauer shouted out as the 5♣ completed the board.
"It's been awhile since you won a hand," Chadd Beatty said from the other table.
"Jimmy, how much you got?" someone yelled out from across the room.
"Enough," Lauer replied.
"He has more than me," Beaty added.
"2.6 big blinds. 40 million. He has half the chips in play," Craig Robertson said.
