Higgs Wins Last Hand of the Day

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante

Sam Higgs had become very active as the day drew to a close, taking down several pots with some canny positional play. This trend continued against the short-stacked Jason Gray.

We caught the action on a flop of {4-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{8-Clubs} with Gray and Higgs heads-up just as Gray fired out a bet of roughly 2,500. Higgs came straight over the top with a re-raise to 7,500 and Gray open folded {7-Hearts}{7-Spades}. Higgs turned over {9-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for a huge draw and after both players asked the dealer for a rabbit hunt he obligingly peeled off the {k-Clubs} meaning Higgs would have hit his club flush.

That brings the action to a close and Higgs finished the day with a stack of 107,900 while Gray dropped to 37,200.
