Erickson Clubs Halaska, Doubles First Hand

On the very first hand, Troy Erickson open-shoved from under the gun, and the action folded all the way to Jeremy Halaska, who immediately called in the big blind.

Showdown

Erickson{10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Halaska{j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}

The {7-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{2-Clubs} flop gave Erickson a club flush draw. The turn was black, but the {8-Spades} changed nothing for Erickson. Only a ten or a club would save him from elimination.

The other black eight - the {8-Clubs} - spiked on the river, doubling Erickson to over 500,000 chips.
