This is So Sick

Alex Kravchenko raised in the cutoff and Derek "Derek8" Lerner in the small blind and another player in the big blind called.

The flop was {5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{4-Spades}. The blinds checked and Kravchenko bet. Lerner check-raised and the big blind and Kravchenko called.

The turn was {7-Clubs} and Lerner bet. Both opponents called. The river was {8-Clubs}. Lerner bet. The big blind raised. Kravchenko folded.

Lerner: "This is sick. You obviously have a five. Eight-five? This is so sick." Ultimately, Lerner called.

Lerner showed {7-Hearts}{6-Hearts} and the big blind mucked. Lerner went up to 22,000.
