Rollercoaster Ride for Joshua Haupt

Level 7 : 400/800, 100 ante

Daniel Statman three-bet to 5,600 from the small blind and Joshua Haupt moved all in for 15,500 from the big blind. The initial raiser folded and Statman called.

Haupt: {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}
Statman: {k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

The flop came {9-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} and Haupt clapped his hands together in celebration. The turn was the {8-Clubs}, giving Statman a straight and Haupt got to his feet and walked away from the table, apparently accepting his fate.

The river was the {7-Spades}, giving Haupt a full house.

Haupt started to collect his things before realising he had a full house and was best.

"Oh my gosh," he said. "What a roller coaster!"

"You didn't see the boat hit, right?" asked a tablemate.

"No! Oh gosh, oh gosh," said Haupt over and over again.

"I thought with the celebration on the flop and the flush draw you were gone!" said Statman.
