Flopped Nuts No Good For Rivet

One of the frustrations many players have with Limit Holdem is that when you flop the goods it can be difficult to protect your hand. Guillaume Rivet just learned that the hard way after his {K-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} flopped the nut straight on a {J-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{9-Spades} flop.

His opponent was Paris Seraj, who raised after the turn and river were spread {7-Hearts},{J-Spades}.

Rivet shook his head and made the call, before angrily slamming his cards on the table in disgust after Seraj tabled {J-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for a rivered full house. She moves up to 50,000 with Rivet now crippled.
