Fitzgerald Fighting Hard

Alex Fitzgerald raised in middle position to 525, and got called by David Chiu in the small blind as well as the player in the big blind. The flop came down {k-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}. Both blinds checked, and Fitzgerald bet out 1,300. Chiu folded, but the big blind decided to raise it up to 3,500 total. Fitzgerald was not deterred, as he came back with a raise of his own, this one to 7,500. The big blind kicked in his cards, and Fitzgerald took down the pot to get back near his starting stack.
