Lawson Turns a Set
Niveau 17
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
A player in early position raised to 18,000, which was called by Ted Lawson in middle position. It folded to the hijack who moved all in for about 200,000 chips. It folded back to the original raiser who sat in the tank for about a minute, before laying his hand down. However, Lawson decided to make the call for his last 30,000 chips.
Ted Lawson: 4♣4♦ 
Hijack: Q♣Q♥
Lawson was in desperate shape after the 10♠A♠J♥ flop ran out. Lawson was getting up from his seat to leave the tournament area, when the 4♠ came on the turn. He immediately sat back down and the 10♦ on the river improved him to a full house, and more than doubled his stack.
