Dempsey Holds for Double

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Maurice Hawkins raised to 35,000 preflop, Chino Rheem called, but then James Dempsey three bet to 180,000. Hawkins and Rheem both called, and all three players went to the flop .

On the {2-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{7-Hearts} flop, Rheem checked, then Dempsey fired the rest of his 250,000 into the pot, which Hawkins snap-called. Rheem then went into the tan for a bit before finally folding, and the two players revealed their cards, with Dempsey at risk.

James Dempsey: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{2-Spades}
Maurice Hawkins: {q-Hearts}{j-Spades}{9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}

The runout of {k-Spades}{3-Diamonds} meant Dempsey's pocket aces held for the lead, and he scooped the pot for a big double up to 1,100,000.
