Lawrence Triples Up

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

After a player raised to about 1,600 and got a couple of callers, Jim Lawrence shoved all in for 4,550 from the blinds. Two of the players called, including the opener, and the two active players took in a {2-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} flop. The initial raiser bet 5,000, forcing his opponent out.

Lawrence: {a-}{4-}
Opponent: {a-}{5-}

A chop looked imminent, as a {q-Spades} turn meant most of the deck would leave the players without a playing kicker. The {4-Clubs} river gave Lawrence two pair though, and he scooped the pot.
