Carving to a Bigger Stack

Jason Somerville
Jason Somerville
Michael Katz raised to 51,000 from the cutoff and action folded over to Jason "JCarver" Somerville in the big blind. Somerville moved all in for 377,000 total and Katz snap-called.

"Do you have aces?" questioned Somerville, thinking he ran into the ultimate cooler. But, Katz only turned up {A-Clubs} {K-Clubs}. Somerville held {K-Hearts} {K-Spades}.

The flop came down with no ace, {Q-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {3-Clubs}. The turn brought a nice sweat to things when the {J-Clubs} rolled off, adding some straight and flush outs for Katz. The river was the {2-Diamonds} and missed all of those outs, giving Somerville the double up.
