Goldstein Crippled, then Triples Back

donpeters

Josh Goldstein recently was crippled down to just a few thousand chips when he ran jacks into queens. Shortly thereafter, Goldstein was all in for 4,000 before a player min-raised to 7,000 from later position. Aaron Lerner called from the small blind, creating a small side pot for the two remaining players in the hand.

After a flop of {10-Clubs}

, Lerner fired 6,000. His opponent raised to 17,500 and Lerner folded, but didn't look pleased that he got raised. Goldstein looked like all his hopes were dashed. But then, the player tabled just {A-Hearts}

for overcards and a flush draw. Goldstein actually had the best hand at the time with two red threes. Lerner saw his opponent's hand and slammed his fist on the table in disgust.

The turn card was the {9-Clubs}

and then the river the {Q-Diamonds}

, allowing the Goldstein to triple back to just under 15,000 chips. Lerner was visibly upset with the player's play in the hand and now has only 30,000 chips.
