Wright Doubles

With the board reading {6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}, there were two checks to Larry Wright who pushed out an oversized bet of 7,900 into the pot. The next player to act called and the two who checked folded their cards.

The turn was the {7-Diamonds} and Wright moved out another stack of yellow t1,000 chips and black t100 chips. His opponent shrugged and announced that he was all in which was actually all in for Wright who only had about around 3,000 left behind after that bet. Wright called and showed {A-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for a turned flush and was killing his opponent's {J-Spades}{3-Spades} for a straight.

The {6-Clubs} fell on fifth street and completed the board, awarding Wright a double up. Wright made note to tell us that he was down to 2,100 at one point during the day and after some griding is currently sitting on about 45,000.
