Utterback of the Pack

[user66118]

About 20,000 was already piled in the middle of the table when the players saw a flop of {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

{8-Spades}

{10-Spades}

. From the big blind, Paul Darden moved all in for his remaining 21,000. His opponent, Mark Utterback, went deep into the tank for several minutes. A player across the felt eventually called the clock, trying to hurry along the decision. As the countdown neared zero, Utterback finally made a hero call with {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

.

It turned out to be not very heroic at all as Darden tabled {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

{J-Spades}

. The

{Q-Clubs}

and

{2-Hearts}

filled out the board to give Darden a courtesy double-up to 43,000. Utterback has fallen to 17,500.
