Khalaf Scores Double Off Denick
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Andrew Denick opened to 2,500 from the cutoff and both Hanna Khalaf on the button and Brandon Shack-Harris in the big blind made the call.
The flop came 8♠8♦7♦ and Shack-Harris checked to Denick who continued for 3,000, which only Khalaf called. On the 9♥ turn Denick checked to Khalaf who moved all in for 12,600 and Denick called with a bigger stack.
Hanna Khalaf: Q♥10♠9♠6♥
Andrew Denick: A♦K♥J♣8♥
Khalaf was out front with a turned straight but would need to dodge the outs for Denick who flopped trips. The river fell the 9♣ and the straight held up for Khalaf to score a full double up to just over starting stack.
