Rafferty Doubles . . . But It Was Sooooted!

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 3,000 ante
"Dang it! Thought I was playing Baccarat for a second!"
"Dang it! Thought I was playing Baccarat for a second!"

With the action folding to Tom Rafferty in the small blind, he bumped it to 78,000 only to have Antoine Amourette three-bet to 180,000 from the big.

Rafferty summed up his options before moving all in with Amourette quickly making the call.

Rafferty: {10-Spades}{9-Spades}
Amourette: {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs}

With Rafferty attempting to four-bet steal being unsuccessful, the {A-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop kept him alive with outs to trips, two-pair and a backdoor flush.

Fortunately for Rafferty he managed to spike the {10-Clubs} on the turn to take the lead, and when the {9-Diamonds} rubbed salt in the wounds of Amourette who slipped to 755,000 while Rafferty soared to 2,200,000 in chips.
