Slim Chops It Up

On a flop of {3-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} Amarillo Slim led out with the opening bet from the big blind and a player in late position raised it up. Slim made the call.

They saw a turn of {Q-Clubs} and again Slim led out, was raised, and made the call.

The river landed the {7-Hearts} and the players slowed down and both checked their hands. Slim held {2-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} for a lowly two pair but it was good for the high as his opponent showed {A-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{10-Diamonds} for a flopped top pair plus nut flush draw combo that ended up collecting the low.

Slim is hanging in there with 3,200 in chips.
