Two Fist Pumps for May After Losing Hand

Level 4 : 100/300, 300 ante

Heidi May and Lisa Costello were laughing about something that had happened earlier during the 100/200 level and they were kind enough to relay what had happened.

May had opened from under the gun and Teresa Thaxton shoved from the button for around 5,500 which May called.

Teresa Thaxton: {a-Diamonds}{q-}
Heidi May: {a-Hearts}{q-}

Apparently, Thaxton shouted for all red cards even though May had the {a-Hearts}.

The flop came {2-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} for Thaxton to flop a flush and straight flush draw.

The turn bricked but the river was a {5-Diamonds} to give Thaxton the straight flush indeed.

Thaxton was so excited she fist-pumped May, asked her for a photo, celebrated a bit more, and then fist-pumped May again. Unfortunately for Thaxton, she lost the doubled-up chips shortly after and her seat was taken by Jessica Dawley.
