Lyons Shoves the River, Doubles
Level 17
: 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Pat Lyons raised to 16,000 pre-flop and was called by Mark McGaffin. Lyons continued for another 16,000 on the flop, and McGaffin called.
Lyons bet 22,000 on the turn and McGaffin stuck around to see the river. This time Lyons shoved for around 100,000, sending McGaffin into the tank.
McGaffin eventually called and Lyons showed for a rivered two pair, tens and sevens. "Don't show, it might be a winner," Lyons said to McGaffin, who mucked his hand.
"I was bluffing the river anyway. I got lucky," Lyons said.
