Rounce-Sue Spikes the River
Level 22
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
JP Rounce-Sue opened to 125,000 from middle position and Jennifer Cassell moved her entire stack of over 5,000,000 in from the button. When it got back to Rounce-Sue, he called for his stack of 1,350,000.
JP Rounce-Sue: A♣K♣
Jennifer Cassell: 9♥9♣
It was a classic flip and one that Rounce-Sue desperately needed to win if he wanted to avoid the sidelines. However, the flop of J♠7♣3♥ was pretty dry, but he did pick up a backdoor flush draw. A J♣ on the turn did open up that backdoor opportunity, and despite a club not hitting the river, Rounce-Sue found the K♥ to double up.
