Lucky Lawrence

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Jim Lawrence outdrew aces to survive.
Jim Lawrence outdrew aces to survive.

We found the aftermath of a three-way all in at Table 19. Jim Lawrence had made a flush with {k-Spades}{k-Clubs} on a board of {8-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{2-Hearts}, and he needed it since an opponent who covered him held {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}. Meanwhile, an empty seat had {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} in front of it; we were told it formerly housed Aaron Johnson. According to players at the table, Johnson had open-shoved, while Lawrence shoved over the top and was called by the player holding aces in the blinds.
