Hand #278: Joe Commisso Wins Event #46; Richard Lyndaker Eliminated in 2nd Place ($570,551)

Richard Lyndaker - 2nd Place
Richard Lyndaker - 2nd Place
Richard Lyndaker moved all in from the button for a little over 1.8 million. Joe Commisso called with {A-Diamonds} {Q-Spades}. Lyndaker held {9-Spades} {7-Hearts}.

Would the best hand hold up this time? Would we have a champion finally?

The flop came down {Q-Hearts} {4-Spades} {10-Spades} and Commisso's rail erupted. Commisso pumped his fist, but needed to sweat the final two cards.

The turn ended it when the {10-Hearts} hit the board. The river was a meaningless {7-Clubs} and Joe Commisso would be our champion.

It was a marathon battle and Lyndaker would take home just over $570,000 for his efforts.
